Gather the Props

Does the sun reflect the moon? Does the ocean dream of streams? You can call them selfish Just like gravity I'm building my own statue It's gonna be 100 feet high I'm not embarrassed to admit it It's a celebration of my life Gather the props Rearrange the chairs Prepare the room Make it look like you don't care Swap out the lens Adjust the frame You may think you know me But you better think again A sapling needs some water And protection from the wind No one else will do it for you So I'm asking as a friend I may be looking for a handout But it won't cost you a thing To give me a little water And protection from the wind Gather the props Put on a different shirt Prepare the room But nothing too overt Swap out the lens Adjust the frame You may think you know me But you better think again
