Window

12/3/20


I opened and jumped out my window
I saw the bigger picture not just life through a window

Went to help out kinfolk

At times had to do the limbo
Wasn't always simple
Jack be nimble
The real thing, not no ditto

Never really got into disco
Or listened to Cisco

I don't need no intro

Too many minnows
Bimbos
And nymphos
It don't mean s*** though

Drinking, while smoke billows  inside a limo
Still learning and obtaining info

Got lit with a few Zippos
Off that drank and indo

Harder shell than an armadillo
She tried to kill me, like a black widow
Near the town of Amarillo
But I got the better of that sicko

Too many people softer than a pillow
Got to grow up, can't keep being a kiddo

Close and far from Pismo
Took care of business with or without a gizmo
In life did no good being a Schizo

Didn't always need to tiptoe
Took a ride on a Pinto
Got off and stood Akimbo
Nearby waters filled with Hippo

Girl told me her name was Calypso
That she was originally from Jalisco
And use to work for Nabisco

She thought I was sweet like Peanut Brittle
And a bag of Skittles
Nah, it wasn't like that, not even a little

Little by little
Was able to chisel
And whittle

Music made with or without a fiddle
Life was much more than a complicated riddle
Had to think outside the box, not remain stuck in the middle

Even though what I did was abysmal
Hit myself with a missile
And woke up in the hospital
