Own Up
own up
if you are the one –
with the answer –
to life’s great sum
own up
if you are turning right
but feeling wrong
is anybody around
to work out the sum
the parts lie on the floor
let’s leave quietly
through the unmade door
own up
if you are the one –
with the money –
that buys the answer
James Garratt – February 2003
