just a man

he was
ever will be
just a man

whose one mistake
was falling in love
for me

like no-one could do it
with quite his style
like the frustrated teacher
taking the pencil off of you
he wouldn't allow
anyone else through

just in case
they got it wrong

just in case
they dropped it
and it broke

precious precious

sometimes it all
just has to
roll downhill for a while hey.

just a man
for whom life grates
upon nerves shaved raw.

just a man
who cannot accept the belt
the sceptre
the official robes
the title
the shame
