The Gift

You Don't get a choice in the sound of your voice
 you don't get a say in the night or the day-time.
 it's only a question of time
 it's all in the question of time.
 When you're looking at something
 you can't see what's behind it
 when you're listening to something
 you can't see what's behind it
 when you're angry at something
 you might not understand it
 when you're laughing at something
 the same might be true.
 Wooden is what, I'd like to be
 oh I think it's ideal speaking materially.
 Oh golden would shine and brass would be fine but wooden is what, I'd like to be.
 Some people have the gift of the rhyme
 and some people have perfect, musical time.
 Some people have articulate speech
 and some people have long skinny legs at the beach. Some people have a penchant for physics
 and some people proclaim to have no physical limits. Some people have irresistible charm
 and some people know how to run factory farms.
 Some people exhibit unbelievable bravery
 and some people have an extreme talent for catering. Some people make a whole lot of sense
 and some people are really understanding parents. Some people are always iconoclastic and somebody had to have invented elastic.
 Smoky Robinson says,
 God gives everyone a gift
 and he got the gift of the rhyme.
 yeah he got the gift of the rhyme, but what's mine?
