Spin Me a Tale

Spin doctor, spin doctor, spin me a tale,
One that no one can ever assail,
Make it a tale that I can address,
Just get me out of this terrible mess.

Spin doctor, spin doctor, spin me a tale,
Make it of love, make it one I can wail,
Help me, oh help me, oh help me do please,
I need a new story for me to believe.

Spin doctor, spin doctor, spin me a tale,
Make it one that will lift the old veil,
I need a new start, some help for my heart,
Give me some hope to set me apart.

Spin doctor, spin doctor, tell me your plan,
I need some instructions to show me I can,
I’m off of my rail with no guide and no light,
I’m in this darn mess with no ending in sight.

Spin doctor, spin doctor, use all of your skill,
I’ve used up my strength and I’ve run out of will.
I know you can do it, you’ve saved many a man,
Now I ask you to save me, give me a game plan.

Spin doctor, spin doctor, spin me a tale,
All my attempts have had no avail,
I need a new start, I’m a desperate man,
Please help me out, I’ll be ever your fan.

Spin me a tale, make it a whale of a tale,
Make it so that the dog wags the tail.
Put me in charge to rule my own fate,
Help me to stand, help me to rate.

Spin doctor, spin doctor, I’ll make you a deal,
You help me up and whatever appeals
I’ll give it to you, on my honor I vow,
If only you’ll help me, and help me right now.

As usual, I speak for the “speakless,” the tired-out care giver, the homeless, the forlorn…See the motto above the banner.
