LYRIC
I’m a foolish mortal
Standing at the portal
Of a heavenly night with you
You’re the rarest creature
Fine in every feature
Divine - that word would do
In your description
But may I mention
I’m not as dumb as it may seem
I’m a foolish mortal
But I know this is a dream

This mortal fool here
Dropped out of school, dear
The hard knocks came too fast
Now my days I squander
As I roam and wander
trying to escape my past
Wave if you see me
You wouldn’t want to be me
Nor would anyone else
I’m a foolish mortal
I know enough to know myself

I’m a simple guy
With simple tastes
And I don’t expect a lot 
At the end we share similar fates
If you’ve figured out the plot 
We all rot!

I’m a foolish mortal
Good for a chortle
To gods and goddesses
That’s what we’re worth friends
As our earth spins
And what a mess this is
Clowns and jesters
Crocodile wrestlers
Guess we put on a show
But I’m just a foolish mortal
Good for a chortle 
Yeah a foolish mortal 
What do I know?

NOTICE: I DO NOT PAY FOR PROMOTION. EVER.

SPOTLIGHT: With "Half My Life" and "we get so lonely we could die," Sexagenarian Vol VI now has eleven of its planned 12 tracks. Check out the other five (5!) volumes of Sexagenarian as well. 

BIO: I started writing songs in high school (1969-1973!) and I've pretty much never stopped. These are mostly solo recording projects (my brother, Fog City Fogey, contributes sometimes).  I don't do much self-promotion, not a fan of Repost Exchange etc, so all of you who find this page and like a song or two - you are truly appreciated!
