to talk the talk and walk the walk
there is something missing in this segue-way life
with dr pepper in hand
and a wink and nod to the wise
a couple of coins stolen from the eyes of the dead
thrown unceremoniously into the collection plate
and scrying for signs in the font by the presbry door
it's time to 'fess up
this is a farce and by every means possible
still a very lost cause
there is a ghost in the machine malfunctioning all over the shop
and...
there is still something missing
in this segue-way life of misappropriated errors
it's called hope...
