A Star, A Jewel, And A Hoax |
He’s a star |
But he didn’t get as far |
As those who idolized his ways and means |
To prepare themselves |
To be better human beings |
Well they understood more than he had meant to say |
In his day |
But that’s okay |
She’s a jewel |
But her tactics are so cruel |
And her past affairs smelled cheap |
Like the perfume in her hair |
She lives |
Another life but not her own |
On an imaginary throne |
In the sky |
She’s afraid to die |
Great thoughts don’t come |
To those who try to hard |
To interpretate what’s going on |
In the minds back yard |
So I’ll leave |
Lest you think that I’m a hoax |
Like these other folks |
In my song |
Good-bye so long |
