I am timid and tongue-tied
But I’ve got a costume
Made of boldness
I will decorate
I will be well
I am broke and bankrupt
But I’ve got a whitewash
Made of hard-work
I will garnish
I will be well
I am portly and plump
But I’ve got an airbrush
Made of work-outs
I will trim
I will be well
I am dismal and despondent
But I’ve got a spray-paint
Made of hope
I will adorn
I will be well
I am adjudged and abhorred
But I’ve got a pigment
Made of love
I will embellish
I will be well
