**sPREcKacKoldT**!

Everything seems in order
because I've got things under control,
life is a bowl of cherries
so, I think I'll have another bowl;

no need to worry
because I've got that magic touch,
I really aught to treat myself
to something I love so very often...

..Oh, oh...huge miscalculation !
Things aren't adding up...
.. I'm **sPREcKacKoldT**!
 
It's a little humorous, to me
how serious I take myself, sometimes.
I use humor as a defense mechanism,
whenever I'm running out of "rhymes".

But, if things go really wrong,
I can always make things right;
even during the day,
but, especially late at evening time...

..Oh, oh...information underload !
Did I really say that ?
I'm **sPREcKacKoldT**!

Whenever it might be, that I need it,
I simply pull humor from the shelf;
however, it's one of those few things
that can sabotoge itself.

And because I instigate it,
I risk being laughed at by every "bloke";
because I can't recover,
when no one gets the humor...                                                                   

...Oh, oh...falling, and will be unable to get up !
Must not tip over !
I'm **sPREcKacKoldT**!

All that I want in life
is respect, and to not appear foolish.
I'd prefer not to wait 'til I'm gone,
to finally get my wish.

So, that's it-it won't get the best of me.
I don't remember opening any door;
that had me groping for what's real,
and then still falling, landing on the ceiling...

...Oh, oh..mispoken words !
Step away from the butt of the joke !
I'm **sPREcKacKoldT**!
