HOW TO SAVE MANKIND ©9/2011 jackie henrion

(inspired by the Jack Hardy Songwriter's Exchange)

Here's a little secret

Just between us two

I've lost the need to be

An entertainer

I don't want to divert you

Convert you then

Desert you

I just want to

Have a conversation

I'm curious to know

How your story goes

How you deal with woes

And what brings you peace of mind

We have a little time

To save the rest for later

The part on how to save mankind

I'd rather be human

Than a musician

Maybe there’s a syllogism

A conclusion

But I'm not sure anymore

Who's the prophet, who's the whore

And now that less is more

Let's just

Have a conversation

CH

There's no question

Our views are different

Goes with the territory

We defend

But I'm not building any walls

The place is already too small

I'm just looking for a few

Good friends
