Stand Up Straight!
Stand up straight!If you slouch, you'll look like an arch.
Stand up straight!
If you slouch, you won't look like anything much.
You'll look like a bridge, not even of stone,
a wooden bridge, a steel bridge,
a trunk thrown across the river,
a mere nothing upon which I'm free to thread.
You'll look like an hyphen, a walkway,
that which I can use to go further,
a background music, a corny tune
of no use to me whatsoever.
Stand up straight!
If you slouch, you'll look like an arch.
Stand up straight!
If you slouch, you won't look like anything much.
You'll look like the shadow of a nobody,
an intermission, a school break,
a lover out of an Enyd Blyton1 story,
a suitor only good for shows,
a big road like any other
lending your flat ground to my steps,
you'll look like a tarmac, a guy too happy
to wallow in his own misery.
Stand up straight!
If you slouch, you'll look like an arch.
Stand up straight!
If you slouch, you won't look like anything much.
I really don't want you to slouch,
I want to bump against you, always.
Don't take away all the chasms
love will summon under my steps.
I don't want any bridge, only rivers,
streams where I could swirl,
I want this life, I want it all,
even if my heart drowns in it.
Come on, stand up straight.
Don't slouch, I've got to walk forth.
Stand straight,
if you slouch I won't look like anything much.
