in my résumé


(LP Cuffed, Collared & Tagged, 1972)


"In my résumé
What will I say
About games I had to play
To try to get my way
In my résumé?

Shall I write about
How long my existence was in doubt?
Or do the things
I was ashamed to shout about
In my résumé?

Will I sing
‘Oh at last
My future’s become my past?’
I’ve seen the rocks of Alcatraz
In my résumé

I’m thinking as I’m writing
I’m sketching as I go
Trying to put into perspective
Things my children oughtta know
Gotta be so careful
I don’t lead minds astray
It’s how you read what’s written in the past
That makes the future style its way
In my résumé"
