I AM THE MAN

WHO WASN'T THERE

*

Looks down

Looks away

Never smiles

Or says "Good-day"!

Never Looks you

in the Eye

Unless you catch Him

By surprise!

*

(There He goes again!)

*

Ladies & Gentlemen presenting;

The Man who wasn't there!

Vanished! Into thin air!

Like He's not even there!

*

Acts as though

He's better than

the sort of Person

that I am!

Acts as though

His shit don't stink

Or something else

like that I think!

*

(There he goes again!)

*

I don't know what

the Problem is

or why He gets

in such a Tizz (?!)

But now there's nothing

left to do

Except pretend

He's not there too..

*

(There He goes again,,

fading away..

into thin.. air..)

*
