[hometext] => This is about a young kid who wants to be like an old, washed-up has-been who now lives on the streets.
[bodytext] => Look at me just sitting here And all you say is you want to be like me Get out in that big, wide world Get a life, instead of saying what you could be Yes, I dreamed as a kid But follow up those dreams I never did I must make you understand That being like me is not good for someone so young At your age, all you should do is wake up And everyday can be fun But when you're old like me Fear is the only thing you see Be like me? I really think you should look elsewhere It's only because I truly care I won't tell a lie So leave before I break down and cry I don't mean to hurt you But what I say is very true Be like me and you won't go far You're better off being like your Pa I was once young like you Always saying what I'd like to do So here I am speaking from my heart One's bad enough, don't make it two [comments] => 0 [counter] => 141 [topic] => 76 [informant] => chrisdavid [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => obsession )
