Mr. Gray
Johnny L.
By the way
Someone called while you were out
His name was Mr. Gray
He said he was a talent scout, and
Saw your resume
Had a project he wanted you on,
Or about
Or within
Just as long as he’s under your skin
He said he’d call you about moving in
Next week
Mr. Gray
He’d seen your work
And thought you’d only tapped your potential
With all your quirks
He felt your growth rate could be exponential
Right now it hurts
But Mr. Gray’s got a plan for reliving the pain
And the sorrow
He’s even got a lame excuse you can borrow
You think it’s bad today?
Just wait for tomorrow
Mr. Gray
Sometimes when the feeling starts to take a hold
Sometimes when it’s way beyond the blues
Sometimes when you wonder what the point is
Sometimes when you’re frightened by the little things
Sometimes when you start to remember some times
One more thing
Mr. Gray said you won’t be alone now
He’ll pull some strings
And push you into a combat zone now
If you missed something
It’s because you haven’t been given the break
or the chance
to see the things that Mr. Gray can enhance
So join the army of gray worker ants
led by
Mr. Gray
