Lonely Security Guard by Hayden
Oh so lonely security guard, he looks so mean from afar
but when you get up close you'll see
he could not hurt a flea
He stands there in the heat
looking straight down at at his feet
and with his hands and an old receipt
he makes a swan so real it breathes.
Oh so lonely security guard, can make you cry with a business card
can make a cricket from a parking ticket
can make a bird from some thrown out words
But he cannot control this herd
'cause he does not look up when he should
He relies on the people's good
a big mistake in this neighborhood.
Oh so lonely security guard, didn't notice me at all
so I grabbed the first thing I saw
and walked right out the front door
But he had just made a paper sword
and threw me right down on the floor
And everyone standing near that store
witnessed a one-sided war.
Origami Security guard, he looks so mean from afar
but when you get up close you'll see
that he's no cup of tea.
