lyrics

IF, A LETTER, "O"

If I could change one letter of my DNA
I would change the letter that would give me X-ray
vision like my mother she can see through skin and bones
she can spot cowards con artists and clowns.

If I could drop one letter of my name
I would drop the letter A and then you would know where I came
from and where I'm going and why I will never be back
why this street is blue and these trees are black.

If I could change the letter that I sent
I would take out the "love" from the argument.
I would take out "parachute" "seahorse" and "Rome"
I would take out "balcony" "electric" and "home"

If a letter could save my life
it would be the letter "o" and I would wear it as a life
jacket, as a thought, as a dress, as a ring.
I will start over and I will sing
"o"
