Little Applause (bling)

[NaNaNer]

A Little Applause

You always held
all the cards
in the pack,
gambling with you
lost the shirt off my back.

But I held out my paw
for a little applause
And I held my breath
for another lost cause

You used to say
nothing can stop us,
I never knew
if it was a threat
or a promise.

But I held out my paw
for a little applause
And I held my breath
for another lost cause

You always had
the monopoly
on what is best,
taking you on
was no even contest

But I held out my paw
for a little applause
And I held my breath
for another lost cause

You used to say
the sky is the limit
making it sound
more obstacle
than target

But I held out my paw
for a little applause
And I held my breath
for another lost cause

Oh, but I have grown bored
with so little applause
