My oh my. In the starlight

Perfect murder. No need to cry—see

I know why. Listen closely 

To the poison 21st century:

I’m only giving what my maker would (They say)

I only want us all to be equal (They say)

I only take the piece I know I should (They say)

If only other people were like me (They say)

My oh my. Look what I find

Keep on running for a way to deny these

Eyes of mine. Clueless as ever

Living lavish in the kingdom of never

I’m only giving what my maker would (They say)

I only want us all to be equal (They say)

I only take the piece I know I should (They say)

If only other people were like me (They say)

My oh my. Am I the only one that’s “blind?” No

My oh my. I could’ve just died. No no

Stuck in flight away for good

So like me
