Clu's Song "Truth Be Known -
Everybody Gets A Shot."
I don't own the show/characters/song
He
nods a little too fast
Talking illogic with a big bombast, he's
Full on dead sure any way's true, and he
Wouldn't wanna knock it if it works for you, he
Crazy
Clu was my nickname when I was a little boy. Always running around, sometimes literally in circles. God I was a hyper kid! And I'll admit it pretty annoying too. I wanted to know everything the exact moment
I thought of the question.
Heave sighs a little too loud
So frustrated with the one-way in crowd
Full on dead sure anything goes
Until you go stepping on his own toes
Once I hit puberty magically I began
to calm down and act like a decent human being. I was tired of being Crazy Clu I wanted to be Calm Clu. But everyone was so used to me being a
little wind up toy that anything else was just wrong. I'll my questions were tossed aside. My family didn't have time for me, after all Carey was the smart
one.
Hold on if the truth be known
Truth is more than "to each his own"
If the truth be known
There'll be more to answer for
Everybody gets a shot
It'll cost everything you've got
If the truth be known
Do you really wanna know?
I tried studying extra hard at
night. Began making videos of everyone
wherever we went. Anything to stick out
and let them know just who I was. Who I
was exactly was something I unfortunately couldn't even answer. Then I decided I too would go to college and
prove to my family and everyone that I could do something unthinkable for me.
She tries a little denial
Rolls her eyes like a jaded reptile
True/false questions make her uptight
Opposites attract, so they both must be right
When I heard Carey had dropped out of
college, I wanted the scream with joy. Go running up to our parents and ask Who's the screw up now?! I was going to school, to get a nice looking
degree and a million dollar job. But my
going away party seemed to be shadowed over the news of Carey's permit
placement in the band. I could never
seem to win.
What if there's someone up there?
Shrugs it off with a "don't know, don't care"
Hopes to God he doesn't exist
But ignorance here is less than bliss
Is there a word starting with a C in
between the definitions of crazy and calm. Maybe comforting would work. Oh
I don't know. I guess I don't know, I
don't know anything. But I'm happy to
say that I'm finally able to accept who I am. No matter what C word that might be.
If the truth be known
Everybody gets their shot!
It just took some time, ok 19 years. To find out the truth of life. Just be who you were born to be.
