Who's out there?

Who's out there? 

Any of you fools listening? 

I'm out here for you dears... 

Not to hear the fear in my own voice. 

I know it all to well. 

Have heard it all too many times. 

So you suckers payin' attention? 

I'm giving a class. 

Life 101. 

I may not know much. 

But I know where I stand 

What I stand for 

Which is more than many can say. 

Give it a look and a listen. 

Lend me your ears 

(or at least a twenty, this gig don't pay much ya know?) 

Or I'll just crawl back in my hole 

And listen to the eerie sound of my own voice 

Ringing in my head.
