I’ll seduce your success
And produce my excess
I’ll confuse your access
And reduce your recess
If you make me the headlines of your life’s news
II
I’ll cripple your dreams
And fipple your screams
I’ll stipple your creams
And ripple your teams
If you make me the headlines of your life’s news
III
I’ll crumble your laughs
And rumble your gaffes
I’ll tumble your staff
And bumble your sclaff
If you make me the headlines of your life’s news
IV
For I live for me and no other
Yes, I work to get paid, satisfied or thanked and no other
I see you only when you block my view
When you leave, you go with your thoughts
Transiency is a law of nature which makes time wasting a taboo
So live with you as your headlines
If you don’t want to wake up in a future
All wrinkled with regrets
Just because you made me your life’s headlines
