Plastic and Glass Revisited

Fresh haircut gelled and slick
No hat to cover this Samson's waves
Clean and shiny and ready to stick
New steps on dance floor raves

Band is hot, beer is cold
This waiting game is growing old
I'll wait for a few minutes more
Must be traffic in front of store

Well it's ten, and time to go
Another beer will make me slow
I did not think you would arrive
Yet disappointment hastens my stride

Music blasting from cd
No one can tell I'm not me
I'm as happy as a clam
I exist, therefore I am

Did you honk, I didn't hear
Music was too loud my dear
Message machine is always ignored
No one calls me unless they're bored

Adding machine is ringing now
Transactions not being made somehow
Breakdown in communications here
No phone line to whisper in your ear

To unconfuse the twisted words
To make the message come out right
Machines are not the way to fight
Should have listened, you were right

I'll let my fear determine my role
And never find peace for my soul
