Story of an Artist

Listen up and I’ll tell a story,
about an artist growing old.
Some would try for fame and glory,
others aren’t so bold.

And everyone in friends and family,
sayin’ “Hey, go get a job.
Why do you only do that only?
Why are you so odd?

“And we don’t really like what you do.
We don’t think anyone ever will.
We think you have a problem,
and this problem’s made you ill.”
