totally off the cuff
had 'enuff
had to write
whether it be right or wrong
hell
it's only my singin a song
my get along

had ta' write
ta' huff & puff
get ridda' some stuff
buildin' up within'
wearin' me thin
but then agin'
i just write

'bout anger
bein' mad
bein' sad
had

glad
ta' say sumpin'

humpin' & pumpin'
grumpin' away

had ta' say

i'm angry

at me
at God
at Life

mad
but not crazy
maybe insane
but who's ta' blame
that's just the game

phases
phrases
thing's ta' write
when the day
become the night

lose the light
lose sight
of what was wrong
and what was right
but
i can still write

i feel better
written' a letter
or two
yeah' writin'll do you

'nutin
personal
not directed at you

just off the cuff stuff

some old
steve stuff
had 'enuff
a' my puffin'
& blowin'
goin' on
showin'
i don't knowin'
nuthin'
'bout this stuff

just off the cuff
