The Presentation

Waiting....
Butterflies in my stomach
Thoughts running through my head
I hope it comes out right
I hope it all makes sense.
Waiting....
I've got to be positive
Even though I don't believe all I say.
It's like a Jew preaching Jesus
Or a Spurs fan praising Arsenal.
Waiting...
He'll be here soon
And in five minutes gone.
All this for five minutes
You'd think he was important.
Waiting...
I wonder what it feels like
People creeping around
Saying what he'd like to hear
He must know it's all a front.
Waiting...
Why am I sitting he worrying?
After all he's just a man
Like me a millions of others
He'll one day return to dust.
Waiting....
