You cannot help what's in your nature
Ahh, jah Rasta man sing-song life
From Damascus to Kashmir
Will I become so wholly eccentric
and woefully low self-monitoring?

Consequences of vanity run amok
With no restraints tied to ego
Or class or career

Just as long as I remember
To wear pants on a daily basis
And remain mindful of clichés and
Refrain from singing aloud too often

Since it was all over even
Before it all began
My efforts can be relieved
Of the burden of giving
A rat’s ass
