You Remind Me of Myself

from Nothin to Write Home About by Sam Steffen

lyrics

Look at that poor man, there, fallin down
Flat on his face in front of everyone
Like some sideshow circus clown
Who mistook the world for a stadium
The more you look, it just seems sillier
A grown man, lyin in his filth
Something about him, tho, seems familiar
Kind of reminds me of—myself
Kind of reminds me of myself

You got one foot on a banana peel
Other’s steppin out on a roller-skate
You’re so mixed up you don’t know how you feel
There’s none to whom you feel you can relate
The road your on’s just getting hillier
You tried it slow and fast, nothin’s helped
Something bout you, tho, seems familiar
Kind of reminds me of myself
Kind of reminds me of myself

Nothin lasts, everything falls apart
If not sooner, well, later, then
I’ve read all about the so-called “broken heart”
Examined a textbook specimen
It starts out warm, but just gets chillier
Eventually, it declines in health
There’s something bout it, seems familiar
Kind of reminds me of—myself
Kind of reminds me of myself
