Band is different
But it’s still not a class
There’s not as much laughter
It’s hard to get passed
And though it changed
And I’m not sure how
I’ll ever like it as much
I will not put my instrument down
And there is a pause
I look around
My old jazz band friends
The ones who get how
Important this piece of metal is
And the significant of a reed
And though the music has stopped
We do not put our instruments down
School will end soon
We’ll take different paths
And college will be over
And so will the band
But I know one thing
That’s sure as can be
I will never put my instrument down
And times will get rough
Money may be scarce
Love still has not found me
And dreams seem of the passed
I’m sure this time will come
But I swear on my life
That never will I even dream
Of putting my instrument down
And war will knock
Upon my skull
Pleading and begging
For the others’ fall
The way to stop a war
Is to loose
And though they will ask me
To tell them the opposite
I stand by
What I say
So when they want
To ship me away
And fill my hands with a gun
I will not put my instrument down
I will not put my instrument down
I will not put my instrument down
I will not put my instrument down

Description:
I sometimes wonder how many people in our band need their instruments in order to live. Even the old jazz band, I wonder about a few of them...

I'm no amazing poet and critique is all fine and dandy, but please don't shoot me down. I write best as my befuddled mind will allow... - Date: 10/15/2008
