Complikated Katy

Complikated Katy
sits in her chair,
ponderin' her Life Dreams
and the color of her Hair.

she thinks her Thoughts
and re-lives her "Oughts".
re-membering all the Things
she's Sold & she's Bought.

Complikated Katy
moves to the couch.
rolls a little smoke
from the bottom of the pouch.
give's her Life some room to Slouch.

smoke dreams
gently curl in the air.
Katy goes back to ponderin'
the color of her Hair.
bettern' rememberin' "Why" she's There.

Complicated Katy
once had her Dreams.
seen 'em all burn Away
like water in the steam.

Complicated Katy
heads off to bed.
ponderin' her Life's Dreams,
and wonderin "Why" she's not Dead.

I know Complicated Katy, at least I knew 'her' at one time. This sounds like a good song.
