There once was a sick person who twisted my ear.
It wasn't physical; it changed what I hear.
When listening to music, I tell myself to prepare.
Twisting words has the power to take you anywhere
---
There was a time words interrupted my jargon.
At that point, it wasn't a beneficial business bargain.
Courts came to mind whenever I heard "suits."
As a stylist, I should have thought of wool and boots.

While there's some fun, it can leave you feeling numb.
There are words people say far too often like "come."
Innuendos lose their humor when said by everyone.
Sometimes it feels like I've words to outrun.
---
I'm never sure which way I'll interpret a song.
There was a day I experimented far too long.
My mind was as disheveled as messy morning hair.
Twisting words has the power to take you anywhere.
