A chapter in the book I Choose Rainbows
Conversation with a Mad Man
by sholessjo
Hey You did it again You're like a shadow Here one minute Gone the next I need you man You're the only one who knows Knows what I ain't no philosopher And I certainly ain't no genius Why don't you go away and leave me alone I can't I'm so mixed up I'm fine one minute And then the next minute I get some kind of chemical reaction And something strange goes haywire in the old noodle Everything turns black I'm a frugin yoyo High one sec and down the next Ok ok Shut the F--- up What do you want to know I want to know the secret to serenity Serenity Now that's a good one I don't think anyone Not even Freud knows what that is But Sigmund is the Arch Angel of mental healing He's got to know Who says so He spent most of his time in crisis reading books The rest of his time he spent writing gibberish With mystical and mythical answers And he still had to write some more What are you saying then Look into that messed up mind of yours Is the answer in me Hell know No one knows what true serenity is There's pills There's drugs People pop them over and over again They drink whiskey and Grey Goose And get hammered into Utopia But when it's over It's over And it's back to reality So what you're saying is that there is no such thing as permanent serenity You got it daddio Then what should I do Well, the first thing you got to do is quit bugging me I'm as loony as you are And the second thing you gotta do Is relax with the game plan What game plan I'm not playing football here Hey stupo Don't take everything so seriously So what if you're not King of the Hill So what if some dimwit kids laughed at you 60 years ago You're a big boy now Grow up You really want to know the difference between you and me Yes master Tell me Please Ok But don't consider this fatherly advice I got too many flaws to be your dad Ok already What is the answer Simple man Go with the flow Take the wave and ride it till you fall Then get up And ride it again The tides of time will show you the way And you will get to where you're gonna go Only smile Smile while you're heart is breaking Smile even though you're faking Smile and soon The sun will come shining through God oh God You the man That is the answer Bad turns into good A bummer becomes a hummer Go with the flow Just give it a shake and enjoy the good times The rest will take care of itself And when you feel bad Take a snooze Cause when you wake up The sun'll be shining through Remember Temporary insanity Temporary serenity That's it in a bagga nuts Gotta go Wife's calling Wait When will I see you again |
