Resolve

I watched you rise

and waited for a reply

from the sidelines

I thought I was

only playing my part




when I turned 18

you burned me a CD

with whatever in C

from the junkie

and made me a new monkey




Phoebe don’t remember me

it’s been a long time

since we talked




now she’s pretty on tv

slipped her mind where

she comes from




remember when we sang

hallelujah in harmony

and laughed at Ms. B

now those days are gone




I’m taking my time

I’m living life

the way I like

and that’s just fine I

owe it to my resolve




Phoebe don’t remember me

just like the chords

she got all wrong




now she’s pretty on tv

slipped her mind

where we come from
