You Got To Get Outside

do you see the dove in flight
merging into blinding light
if you dont well that's allright,--as long as you know it's there.
do you feel the midday breeze
giving summer sun releif
lifts you up from of your knee's,

you got to get outside.

roll me off the steepiest cliff
watch in wonder as i live
ask for some of what i give,--ther's plenty enough for two.
spin me in your hurricane
land me onto baron plain's
i shall come back less restrained.

you got to get outside.

pass me as your animal caged
shout that i am all the rage
print me onto your front page,---you got to stay outside.
put me in a higher class
of servile knight's and aristocrat's
let me show you why they're crass.

they carn't come outside.

put me on your right hand side
in a ditch of paracite's
start to read me my last right's,--will no-one come outside.
blame me for your timely fall
never answer when i call
kneel me blind against a wall.

all is mine outside.

track me down and wish me well
speak to me more your hard sell
take my wishes out the well,--the story's half way told.
i could regail for far too long
put right with pen all my wrong's
sing the same old sorry song's.

but the story's end outside.
