 Yeah, I'm playing again. We've all been given a second chance, and I'm taking it.

*****

"My Song"

Hello there, ladies and gentlemen (1).

Who am I? What's my name? (2) Mike--he doesn't need his name up in lights; he just wants to be heard. (3) He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready. (4) Loves Jesus, and America too (5).

I'm heavenly blessed and worldly wise (6); teenagers scare the living **** out of me (7). I could be brown, I could be blue, I could be violet (8)...

I'm tired of being what you want me to be (9); I'm not that stupid little person still in love with you (10). Don't stand so close to me (11); you're no good for me, and I'm no good for you (12).

Nothing more to say (13). I'm not a man of many words but there's one thing I know: I am #1 (14).

Goodnight; it's over with; that's all she wrote. (15)

(2) Snoop Dogg, "Who Am I (What's My Name)"
(3) Fort Minor, "Remember the Name"
(4) Eminem, "Lose Yourself"
(5) Tom Petty, "Free Fallin'"
(6) Timbuk3, "The Future's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades"

the voice within, all the world's a stage, open mike, first person, mirror mirror
