Stanley Michael Volume 4: 1994 to Present Poison Pen from "Coming Up For Air", 1996, Intersound Music Inc. So you've got a leather jacket and a backstage pass... And an attitude that just won't quit You've got your greasy little toady walking two steps behind telling you, man, you're 'it'... You say you're looking for an angle but I think it's the beer You cop a few and you're long gone Headline, deadline, anything to hide behind Why don't you strap a set on?... (CHORUS:) Those that can, do Those that can't, write about it Those that can, do Those that can't, write about it So you bought a poison pen, couldn't make it yourself... was the only way that you knew how And you renew your subscription to the Catch of The Day at the Church of What's Happening Now... Reading...all the big boys starting to drool Steal from them, chapter and verse Let's not talk about original thought-- If you had one it would be the first... (CHORUS) Well, it's gotta make you crazy that you don't have the guts... to lay it out on the line And think it's time to face you're just taking up space... and wasting everybody's time And year after year, when you're looking in the mirror all you see's the great unknown You had a little power and it went to your head-- when it got there, it was all alone... (CHORUS) --words & music by Michael Stanley |
