You Put The 'Fan' In Fantastic Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You Put The 'Fan' In Fantastic



When you give it to give,
To do it to give...
Just give it.
And then be gone.

When you give it to give,
To do it to give...
Just give it!
And then be gone.

Some people wake up with a having those days,
When they want to be smothered in praise.
And they are not the ones to give,
To do it just to do it to give.
And...
To leave it alone.
Some people seek to do for others to approve,
And just can't...
Leave it alone.
They want some,
Praise to go on.

Some people like reminding people...
What it is they do that's done.
Some people like reminding people...
Who did what to do to get 'what' done.

When you give it to give,
To do it to give...
Just give it!
And then be gone.

When you give it to give,
To do it to give...
Just give it!
And then be gone.

Some people like reminding people,
They seek and need some praise.
Some people like reminding people,
That no one sleeps if they don't get praise.
Some people like reminding people,
They gave it to give it but they didn't get praise.

Give them some praise.
When you give it to give,
To do it to give...
Just give it!
And then be gone.

Give them their praise on those praiseless days.
Give them the praise they crave.
Just give them some praise don't be the one crazed.
If you don't they wont forget it.

'I think you put the 'fan' in fantastic.'

~Stop.
You're just saying that.
But...
For real?
You think so? ~
