This song is a biblical allusion for about 10 seconds and then turns into my own confession.
Early this year I thought I was the shizz. The difference is now I know if for sure. Ok, so there will be some humor. I thought I had it so figured out I would graciously show some younger students "how to live" the Karen way.
As it turned out, I needed people as much as they needed me. This song starts quite pompous, placing myself as Joshua and Michelle as a wall that needed breaking down. What happens by the end is that all the time I was "banging my drum" and telling her that I was going to bring down her walls, my own wall was damaged and came crumbling down.
This song is truth, pure and simple. I agonized over it for 6 days. I had the first half down and started to question it. So I pulled out my banjo and the second half poured out. Those are the best songs.
This song originally included a verse about French-speaking peas throwing slushies at my head. But I decided to keep it real instead.
