Copy Cat, Copy Cat Poem by Sarah Persson

Perform as I do, like a puppet on a string,
Wear the same I wear, sing the same songs I sing,
Reach for the same stars and smile with the moon,
It all wears thin quickly, you'll feel it real soon.

Copy cat, copy cat, what brings you here?
You think it's a blast sharing space as I steer?
Find your own cloud and reach high for your dreams,
Cause this one I'm riding ain't as good as it seems.

I've lumps and I've bumps, I'm a little bit worn,
In fact I've not really much use here at all,
But here in my wisdom I truly can share,
I've lost loads in transit, not much left to spare.

Pull on my apron strings, hang by a thread,
Soon you'll be wishing you'd done more than said,
And all being well you'll come out of it fine,
And be happy you've more, than the tail you're behind.
