[Verse 1]
An old man gave me a tip, he said
"Don't waste your time with politics", he said
"Just chase skirts instead"
And "Life is too short, and you're almost dead", he said
"I met a woman once, gave her my best shot
But never did I talk, and talk and talk
If I had her back, I'd be real as my age
I so don't blame them, I wouldn't do the same
But I can blame them
I'd sing her this”
[Chorus]
And you want to be dressed in poetry
But imagery doesn't fit
And you want resizing
But darling, dear, get a grip
[Bridge]
And I think what I just wrote is going over my head
I'm stealing lines from myself
And what I said was never said
It's just a lyrical lie
Made up in my mind
[Chorus]
And you want to be dressed in poetry
But imagery doesn't fit
And you want resizing
But darling, dear, get a grip
