Fleeting Thoughts
I was about to speak to you
There was something on my mind
Yet now that I'm looking for it
It's a something I can't find
My composure always seems to desert me
When I'm most in need of my whit's
I'm feeling pretty abandoned now
And looking like a ditz
I had some earth shattering idea
I was gonna change life as we know it
I stood ready to revolutionize the globe
Shit . . . looks like I'm gonna blow it
I can blame this on impending age
My mind is not so limber
Would you stop looking at me that way
I'm trying to remember . . .
