Unless You're My Friend

Like a train off a cliff
A statue for bliss
A hat full of tricks
A smile for kicks
All the same in the end
I’ll try not to laugh, unless you’re my friend
Like a show for the blind
Maybe a game for the mind
Digging a hole for the climb
Running a race, to unwind
All the same in the end
I’ll try not to laugh, unless you’re my friend
Like a mirror for depth
Another trap being set
Status, crutches are bet
Groups, bunches are met
All the same in the end
I’ll try not to laugh, unless you’re my friend
Like a book learning lies
A clown, that never cries
A judge, that never dies
A guide, that never tries
All the same in the end
I’ll try not to laugh, unless you’re my friend
Like a fool, being taught a lesson
An owl, trying confession
A hatter, finding a mission
A ladder, no more extending
All the same in the end
I’ll try not to laugh, unless you’re my friend
