Competent STaN


Im competent Stan
Its who I am
Make living seem easy
But it’s not slight of hand
Its acceptance of all
Keep standing tall
Against it all
Doesn’t mean I don’t fall
I’ve tripped on some of life’s dares
More than a few were treacherous snares
Gave some of those too much care
That was the snare
But I’m competent Stan
Its who I am
Make living seem easy
But its not slight of hand
When everything is piled up
I dig in and dig out
Spending only a minute on the pout
Trying not to put it all off too long
Working at it makes you strong
Its always better when I sing along
But I’m competent Stan
Its who I am
Make living seem easy
But its not slight of hand
I just keep making my stand
On this ball of sand
Remembering life is grand
Singing along to life’s band
Even when it’s a hard stand
