about

Imagine someone resolving to turn over a new leaf and create a new identity for himself. This is his song.

lyrics

Take care not to stray from the flock –
They'll see your head on the block!
They'll mix a cyanide pill in your vial of hemlock!

Embracing the role of rogue
Will suit until it comes in vogue.

It's time to shed the skin I'm in.
I'm breaking out; I'm breaking in a new pseudonym.

Take care where you place all your trust –
They'll grind your bones into dust!
They'll test your mettle until you corrode and then rust!

Embracing the role of saint
Has left me with a mild complaint.

It's time to shed the skin I'm in.
I'm breaking out; I'm breaking in a new pseudonym.

Embracing the role of rogue
Will suit until it comes in vogue.

It's time to shed the skin I'm in,
And time to face the reckoning.
I'll take disaster on the chin.
I'm breaking out; I'm breaking in a new pseudonym.
