I
Would Have Been….
…a
thief, but I just couldn’t take it.
…a baker, but I
couldn’t raise the dough.
…a professor, but I
didn’t have the class
…an optometrist, but I
just couldn’t see it – and I didn’t want to make a spectacle of myself.
…a dentist, but I
couldn’t stand the daily grind.
…a watchmaker, but I
didn’t have the hands for it.
…a plumber, but my
plans went down the drain
…a truck driver, but I
was too young to shift for myself.
…a strip tease artist,
but I just couldn’t bare it.
…a telephone operator,
but it wasn’t my line.
…a mail carrier, but it
wasn’t my bag.
…a photographer, but nothing
developed.
