If You Must lyrics

I can read, I can write

I can breed, proven plight

Nurse my greed, crease infold

Is it me, or my ego?

Write some words, make them rhyme

Thesis or storyline

Set the mood, something new

Is it me, or my attitude?

If you want to put off an image

The extremes, the extremes

Act it out, practicing,

Perfecting, pressuring

On to me, on to me, on to me

I will wait in a phylum

To explain your asylum

I am tired analyzing

We've compared all our sizings

You must

I speak to hear my voice

I can read, I can write

I can breed, proven plight

Nurse my greed, crease infold

Is it me, or my ego?

Write some words, make them rhyme

Thesis or storyline

Set the mood, something new

Is it me, or my attitude?

If you want to put off an image

The extremes, the extremes

Act it out, practicing,

Perfecting, pressuring

On to me, on to me, on to me

On to me, on to me, on to me, on to me
