Music Man

When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest. - Thoreau

i can make you dance

make you swing and sing

make your heart sting

hell, i can reach inside, touch your soul and make you feel anything

i can make you hop

make you shimmy and beebop

make you wail and stop

make you drop and shop

make you jam and rock

i'm here, there and everywhere

i can make you stop and stare

i love long hair

i swear that i never play fair

so beware

i'm not kidding

yes i can

it's been this way since time began

all of this and more without a plan

because you don't understand

damnit, you don't realize that

i'm the music man

Author's Note

"Men profess to be lovers of music, but for the most part they give no evidence in their opinions and lives that they have heard it." -Thoreau
