“Feelin’ Itty Bitty”
by Brian Bolding
Head hung low
Can’t cope, must dope
To hide the pain to get my mind
Off this runaway antisocial mine train
It’s time to settle down
It’s time to drown
Laying down next to kitty
Feelin itty bitty
Feeling pretty shitty
Standing tall, but feeling small
Standing tall, but feeling small
Don’t want to move
Got nothin’ to prove
Just feelin’ the groove
A little music on the turntable
After 2019 I’m still barely able
To keep my eyes open
But I’ll try, but I’ll try
I don’t want to miss a thing
When its time to let my heart sing.
