LYRIC FOR SALE

By Paul Pratt

Verse 1
Allow me
To introduce my piece
For a brief duration
to approach you in
Greeting to conduct the occasion
To form my impression
state my intention
In an overture
Familiar in section
to the audience selection
Verse 2
I will set the mood
You will find your feet
Address the beat
Join my journey
Feel the process
The sentiment the plot
Access romance the
Anticipation circumstance
Arriving late or leaving early
Bridge
The music will open the door
Verse 3
Witness my overture
Pilot my spell
Test all factors
The dramatic structure
Will document all actors
Capture my expression
The movement in session
The detail will not fail to engage
Chorus
As the beginning leads the way
Rules enter the play with
Points to prove
Our foundations sway
Tunes both hasten and delay to
Chase our blues away
The overture has passed
The end forms too fast
A brief and beautiful contrast
Leaves us alone
Feeling outcast
All the way home
