Unspoken Needless To Say

Well, here's the deal with my dismay.
I really find it needless to say.
If you can't figure out what's wrong.
I doubt you'd get the meaning of the song.
Sooo, I feel the need to say so long.

Listen, if you want to know.
What's deep inside and makes me glow.
Just take a look into the mirror.
What you see is what you hear.
Listen, get outta here. (Boston or New York accent needed. Which ever one is right. :)

The reason that I seem so ranker.
I am not your emotion banker.
Just get your head out of your ... .
If you don't like it, take a pass.
Somethin' stinks, you got gas?

Are you starting to get the picture.
This is my unspoken lecture.
Yeah, there is plenty underneath.
Aren't you glad I didn't bequeath.
I feel like I need to brush my teeth.

So, now you know why I didn't mention.
All the anger and the tension.
That rubs me till I'm almost raw.
About things and people that I saw.
Cause I'd rather share a big guf-faw.

For the slam contest

Had to read it several times to perhaps figure it out.. (Cheating or betrayal, I think.) Good one. Congratulations. Should have placed better IMHO.
