80 : 6/29/98 : Act (Will series 2 of 6)

Well I’m a hired desperado
one smooth running gun
From the cool of the morning
to the setting sun

And if the song I’m singing
seems a bit extemporaneous
Call it an act of will
I’m nothing if not spontaneous

Well I’m a dog in the evening
And a tomcat at night
I’m an ox most days
I pull my plow under hot summer light

I get it together
pulled around one act of will
Me and my bootstraps
and this bitter pill
