A Better Version of Me

The nickel dropped
When I was on
My way beyond
The rubicon--
What did I do?
And the games that I can handle,
None are ones worth a candle--
What can I do?
I'm a frightened, fickle person,
Fighting, cryin', kickin', cursin'--
What should I do?
Oooh, after all the folderol,
And hauling over coals stops--
What will I do?
Can't take a good day without a bad one,
Don't feel just to smile until I've had one--
Where did I learn?
I make a fuss about a little thing,
The rhyme is losing to the riddling--
Where's the turn?
I don't want a home, I'd ruin that
Home is where my habits have a habitat--
Why give it turn?
Oooh, after all the folderol,
And hauling over coals stops--
What did I learn?
I am likely to miss the main event
If I stop to cry and complain again,
So I will keep a deliberate pace--
Let the damned breeze dry my face!
Ooooh mister wait until you see
What I plan to be...
I've got a plan, a demand and it just began
And if you're right, you'll agree--
Here's coming a better version of me
Here's coming a better version of me
Here it comes...
A better version of Me
