Absent Minded
Psychology of planning to fail
Here i am in the middle
Your king in poverty
the joke is you all work for me
and you want me to succeed
and i plan to fail
like a curse
i try to fail
I am a good king
i will bestow you with gifts
There are methods to my madness
of why i humble myself this way
why i act the way i do
why i plan to fail and why i need you to work for me
to help me succeed
now i don't mean succeed to fail
i mean succeed in succeeding
failing all by myself is easy
sing to me
write for me
act for me
help my name
go down in history
for hundreds of thousands of years i will be remembered and many of you
in my sphere of influence near or far will be remembered
this mystery of how it all started the puzzle the mystery
for no one truly knows
but the psychology of me planning to fail
and your test to help me succeed in these times is truly for your own good
Look at the world arpound you
obese children
and low self esteem drug addicts
many making poor decisions
so as i plan to fail
and you watch me
spy on me
dream of the horrors or i plainly tell my doctors and comraderies my strife
help me therough it
be my guide
tell me right from wrong
be my shoulder to lean on
and help me rebuild my empire of witness protection programs
and all i have to do is streive to fail and you strive to help me succeed
As the future listens to the music
watches all those plays and movies
and the lines were drawn
and the mystery unravels
and you realise who iam and what or ponder who
and as you make money building me up
placing my name in your will
or money in my rrsp's or whatever tpo one day do the rtight thing
for all the millions ypour making off of me
the court cases get messy
the lawyers and hung juries
my future estate just a game to be played
that plays on for ages or centuries
and this mystery something all surrounding
wether or not im a somebody or nothing
a something or no one
planning to fail
and you all tested tpo help me succeed
and how it helped your future
By me planning to fail and you using your psychology to get me out of bed
in the morning to get up and start again
for me to plan to fail and not want to live and you to coax me back to life
how many thosands arte you reaching reaching me as i plant o fail
and say im never coming back
and by the time im finally happy
even though im never happy
Now you sort of understand your job description and you are already hired
those who arent doing as they are told are going to be fired
those who arent doing the future the favor of the mystery and the present
the quest for being remembered and appeased for not being blamed
will need to run and never stop
for that psychology of planning to fail
will not be tolerated
and i have put up with it long enough
Give me a peace of you dear author
give me a peace of you dear singer
dear screen writer
dear playwright
dear poet
dear politician
for i will be remembered
and carry many names with me and their works
many will be forgotten
and now you understand how names are remmebered
how you are employed
and we are a team
ive just casted
let's begin
Psychology of planning to fail
and believe me i will be ruling the world from beyond the grave
and in time i may return if things go my way
but ohnestly they never do
and when i dpo return i may be angry for everyone screwing up everything
so practice makes perfect and timing is everything!
