So I'm sat here on my ass.
Listening to all your trash.
I've a feeling, I don't know,
Something deeper than
A dynamo.

I feel like whistling along,
Singing the song, but
All I hear is ron-do-dom
-Don. A litany of blatent
Lies, lost years, and forgotten
Cries.

Please help mother, 'cause I've
Learnt to care: boys will be boys.
Drank so much that I'm out there
Playing the game: that same lame
Game. Remember honey, the fallacy
Of fame.

Sex with a scorecard, put me in the know.
Done so many things, guilty things that show,
It was sex with a scorecard, every
Moves a point. Sex with a scorecard,
Fouls for free! here's a joint!

So now I'm incarcerated in the County jail,
Locked away from my loved ones: big
Blondes and ginger ale. It was sex with
A scorecard, the crime of an overdrive,
Sex with a scorecard, every day's a ride.



That's just what translation is, I think. That's all speaking is. Listening to the other and trying to see past your own biases to glimpse what they're trying to say. Showing yourself to the world, and hoping someone else understands.
