What About Me?

Composer: Roger D. Linder
What about me? I was once your best friend With you ‘til the very end Now you treat me Like a nobody What about me? It was I who started it Without me you wouldn’t get Anywhere at all You will likely fall Everything you touch Will come crashing down Think it’s a bit much? I think you’re the clown They will turn on you Just you wait and see Don’t think that is true? My advice is free What about them? They can’t even speak aloud You see them as weak and cowed But they are the backbone Think about what you’ve done What about them? You won’t let them speak their mind Now forever left behind Cast away like trash Burned up into ash

@prsongsmith - 2025-03-02 Ooh, now I want to hear the rest of the opera! Love the way the song pivots from "What about me?" to "What about them?" around the verse that starts "They will turn on you" -- that's some A+ songsmithery right there! Great stuff!
