An Ode To Power Tools
With great power comes great responsibility
That's what the instructions say unto me
And I feel as if I'm full of testosterone
As I plug in all those gadgets I own
Holds on for grim death in case
Full of hope with a stern face
It could go so very wrong
My track record is long
Full of scars and cuts
Eyes open not shut
As I feel a surge
A manly urge
To push it
Pressing hard
A total disregard
For self-preservation
Too much? Thrill sensation
As I ease back, assess the damage
How to disguise it is the next stage
Too much off the length, way too big
It'll look alright if you paint, give it a jig
Visual illusion covers a multitude of sins
High on the buzz here's where it all begins
Cos in the hands of a D.I.Y loser they're killer
Stand well back if you wanna live! Its a Thriller.
