And here's the words...
I shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be here,
I don't belong in this century
or any other if the truth be told.
But I'm here despite the odds
and I'm not going away yet.
I'll paddle my own canoe,
against the current as likely as not.
Riding the dancing rapids of imagination,
through the leaping quicksilver shallows,
dodging the sharp rocks of reality
then gliding across the cool depths of serenity.
Defiantly 'mooning', waving my arse
at Shakespeare's 'outrageous fortune'.
Slipping past obstacles like a fish in water,
my casual ease hiding the scars
of the times I've grounded and nearly sunk.
I really shouldn't be here,
but I bloody well am!
