Out of You, Out of View
Sometimes I wish that I was a cartoon walking round in a cartoon room, singing songs for the other cartoons making money out of you.
I’d write a book that was all about me. Tales from my life for you to read. A fictional biography for making money.
Take a leaf out of my book and when it’s took, take a chapter or two. You can learn from my life experiences, even though they’re not true.
CHORUS:
It’s an in-joke that I’m having with myself, raise a glass and drink to my health.
Sincerely, I apologise if I can’t look you in the eyes; it’s not easy getting comfy when you’re sitting on a goldmine.
Or maybe I could make a film instead; about the life that I could have led, about my life and philosophy for making money
Take a moment from my life and make it right, make it sunny and new. You can learn from my life experiences, even though they never happened.
CHORUS
(It’s not easy) (Please believe me)
It’s not easy getting comfy when you’re sitting on a goldmine, or keeping poker-face when you’re shuffling a pack of lies. I don’t know who this life belongs to but it isn’t mine.
