Self-portrait

Coolparadiso

Uke is the predominant instrument for World Uke Day

V1 I wanted to tell a story
But it didn’t feel quite right
Trying to bring this picture
Out into the light

V2 I knew that i recognised it
But couldn’t work out where
So i worked on it tirelessly
Completely unaware

C I didn’t like the look or style
But its hard not to relate
When in the end i really think
It just a self portrait

V3 Is this really how it is
Is this really me
Its like i found a new door
And i’ve got the key

V4 Its like looking in the mirror
Not recognising what you see
Is it really this way
Or someone elses reality

C I didn’t like the look or style
But its hard not to relate
When in the end i really think
It just a self portrait

V5 As it reached completion
And i navigate
How will this turn out
Its hard not to contemplate

V6 I wish that it was different
But i guess its just this way
But it is what it is
Like some morality play

C I didn’t like the look or style
But its hard not to relate
When in the end i really think
It just a self portrait
