TOPIC: GO AHEAD...BUST MY BUBBLE by Mark Maxeygo ahead ... bust my bubble
give me a note and it can do the trick
simple words…misconstrued thoughts
it’s all a game to those who’s got the shtick
packaged up and sold just as you bought
go ahead ... bust my bubble
it’s been done before
even when it is just as subtle
it was you evening the score
timeless passages…recurring scenes
some say it’s a cycle…I just say it’s mean
go head it seems you already spilled the beans
don't come near me again...
go ahead ... bust my bubble
it’s been done before
even when it is just as subtle
it was you evening the score
you’re up on stage trying to sell it again
all pretty and dressed up like Halloween
simple request an offered hand was meant to lend
but no you had other secrets not meant to be seen
go ahead ... bust my bubble
it’s been done before
even when it is just as subtle
it was you evening the score
misplaced trust…unexpected turns
clever thoughts construed to mislead
as if you’re the teacher trying to make me learn
and why did you ever construct this deed
go ahead ... bust my bubble
it’s been done before
even when it is just as subtle
it was you evening the score
silly me holding out for hope
when it appears it was never real
maybe because you’re strung out on dope
and I thought it was real kewl deal
funny...but go ahead…bust my bubble

Posted by Michelle Angelini on 01/21/05 at 04:12 AM Mark I like this. It's funny and sad at the same time, and I sense an attempt for the narrator to overcome pain. |
Posted by Kyle Anne Kish on 01/24/05 at 02:14 AM Mark, I like what you did with this topic. The way it's written, it could be put in the form of a song. |
