My good gobbalins and girlies
Mortals and mifits
Ghouls and grembolins
I present to you now the award winning polymath of stage and stream
Kate Nyx!
I don't want to be an artist
I don't think I want to starve
Sure I do love to draw and paint but
Someday I'd like to own a car
I don't want to make my living
Doing song and dance
Unfortunately, It's destiny
And art is who I am
I don't want to be unique, no
It'd be nice to just fit in
To be comfy in my status quo
What it would be to feel akin
To the average joe who, don't you know, turns his work in on time
Unfortunately, it's destiny
So the artiste am I
I'd love to have a nine to five I trudged through every day
Cursing my boss for keeping me criminally underpaid
Maybe if I was normal I would finally be free
Cause every year the IRS would send a check to me
I didn't mean to be creator
I didn't mean to tell a joke
At some point I had to admit
My plans for life went up in smoke
I was cursed to make my living selling what I make
Unfortunately, between you and me
I think destiny is fake!
At first I thought that I was gripped by siren songs of fame
That I just wanted the whole world to remember my name
Or is it that I want to lie to everyone I meet
When someone asks what I do for a living on the street
I don't want be an artist
I don't want to feel the pain
Of failing at something you care about
Publicly admitting shame
I just want to make things I like and do nothing else at all
Unfortunately, between you and me
"Artist" is what that's called
Unfortunately, between you and me
"Artist" is what that's called
