I want to come clean
You see that I’ve been
Too long on the scene
If you know what I mean
It started with Kathleen
Who I met at the Green
Must have been sixteen
And didn’t have a bean.
Wow! that was unseen
That first little bean
Took me really keen
Aboard that time machine.
More came to demean
Me, I drifted so lean
Through fantasies seen
orange, pink and pea green.
Without my vaccine
I was a fiend real mean
From the world’s screen
Smashed in between.
Please do help me wean
Myself from the unclean
Get out of the ravine
And perhaps intervene.
To rise up like a queen
On you I must lean
Aid me, aid me Dean
to break this habit obscene.
Just brilliant, I loved it!
