Fix It. (Tom Entrican, 6-6-2019)
When the bread just won’t stay down
And refuses to turn brown
When the toaster just won’t toast
How do you make it?
When the tele has no vision
And the music has no sound
When the boogie just won’t boog
Where can you take it?
When the wheels refuse to turn
Fossil fuels it will not burn
When the auto won’t mobile
Do you just park it?
When your legs will not stand
And you brace the best you can
When the distance just expands
How can you fix it?
When the inner starts to fight
Beating back all signs of light
When your face no longer smiles
How do you fake it?
When the heart still beats a sound
But no life there can be found
When it sinks below the ground
How can you take it?
When the eyes start to dim
And can only see the grim
When the vision just knows pain
How do you stop it?
While you shuffle through the day
And there’s nothing left to say
And you turn the world away
How can you love it?
