Did you get the letters I sent

I sent them such a long time ago

I swear I'm a better man now

I'm fairly unrecognisable

I swear you never change

But me I never stay the same

You're conversing with a shapeshifter

A wants-and-needs sifter-drifter

​

And oh my gosh,

Is that really what I was like

In such a rush

To be old before my time

And here I am 

Older and wiser

With less sand

In the palm of my hand
