Neil Howell - Poser

You know, I was just sitting here playing this old guitar
All of the sudden, I got hungry
So I went into the kitchen
Got me some bread, got me some cheese
That's right, I made a big ol' cheese sandwich

Another night banging on the wall
I thought I'd seen it all
I didn't realize that it was gonna be a crawl

My friends called me up, hey do you want to go
We're gonna leave this show
The end's in sight and that all you need to know

We met up near the five and dime
We were in our prime
Blinded by youth we had no sense of time

Then I saw you there with my ten-yard stare
I needed you, woman
But I didn't know where to go

Turn around
Burn it down
She laughed and said I was a clown
Jealous now
A fool's vow
I'm going nowhere with a poser's crown

Back home again
I had to ditch my friends
Committed surgery with my paper and pen
I remade my mask
A never-ending task
Every note I played repelled future attack
Oh, to be so cool
And not played the fool
Insecure enough to break all the rules
But it's never enough
You called my bluff
A poser 'till the end, I am shit out of luck

Guitar in hand, I'll make my stand
Let me show you all, what you've been missing

I'm coming to get you
There's no escape
A poser takes his shape
And you saw right through my disguise
And looked into my eyes
And saw a pretender
A fake offender
I'm a poser 'till the day I die
