Reprieve
Came empty handed to this world.
Be bankrupt when I leave.
Wasted most of my time here.
Lord grant me a reprieve.
Tell a Story
Life on earth is just a stage
Sing or dance or mime.
Juggle, joke or tell a story
Silly or sublime.
Get your act together friends
Before curtain time.
Or in the end you might find
You ain't worth a dime.
The Real McCoy
The Real McCoy wasn't real.
His name was Norman Selby.
He's not the legendary boxer
But he might as well be.
Mom
Mom washed the family cloths on Mondays,
Tuesdays, ironed them flat.
She worked all week and went to church
on Sundays. That was that.
