It's A Malfunction!!!


It's official, cos I saw this fella,
Who's got these letters after his name!
That means he's as clever as can be,
And a result in his work is his only aim!
Well I went to see him and cried,
Yep, I seem to cry a lot all of the time!
And I really hate it I do, I'm not a wimp!
So nope, I'm not feeling fine!

But I figure this! It's a malfunction!
You know, the poor old brain has a glitch?
And there ‘is' a way to get it better,
But it won't go away with a stitch.
I'm having a really hard job with this,
Cos you know, I'm always in control!
But at the moment, this isn't so,
So now this is my aim, my goal!

I don't like having this malfunction!!
Cos it's driving me up the pole...!
...Instead of driving my car,
And nope; I don't really feel whole!
But this woman that I see now,
She told me it's okay to be like this,
But I'm not one for malfunctions!!!
And I don't like ‘hit-and-miss'!!

I like to be in control of myself,
But how can I; when I can't drive my car?!
And this is why I'm crying all the time!
Plus; my wheelchair doesn't go that far!
So my wings are clipped, they are,
And I'm finding I'm all a quiver...
...Every time I have to drive my car,
All my inside's begin to shiver!

I've decided, yes, it's a malfunction!!
And this man who I saw the other week,
Is the ‘man' who really knows it!
So now it's therapy that I seek!
Well actually I started therapy,
And I've seen this lady just twice,
She said she hasn't a magic wand,
To make it go away in a thrice!

But I was having a real problem,
Thinking I was really losing the plot!
But after seeing this man who's clever,
I have decided that I'm not!
So all in all, this is my problem,
How do I get in that car and drive?
When I please, as I need, you know...
Without the fear of ending up dead, but alive!

When a car comes to me left,
Phew, the panic inside me is bad!
I go to pieces, on high alert,
And I think it's making me sad.
Cos I was, ‘AM' an excellent driver!
But this man has messed with my head!
By not taking due care and attention!
I could have ended up dead!!!

But I have decided to get on top of this!
And sort out my head and my heart!
Get in that car, well, ok, maybe not yet,
And make a brand new start!

And I will; it just seems to be taking forever!
