A Part of Me


I have held to myself this one great truth, I now admit it, just to be couth. You are a part of me, a part of me. I now admit this heartily. You are a part of me, a part of me. As to which part, oh gee. For you see, I find that like restless legs, You travel wherever I go. And you are also very burdensome, Just like an infected toe. You are a part of me, a part of me. And not one I can lose. You are a part of me, a part of me. This is hardly any news. Like an upset stomach, You let everything out. Like a burst appendix, Your longevity could raise a doubt. You are a part of me, a part of me And one that I truly hate. You are a part of me, a part of me And now let’s amputate.
