Lyrics
This Is Not a Guitar
(By Lanny Sherwin)
Verse 1: This is not a guitar,
It is a time machine
Where I want to explore,
It always transports me.
I can run with the dinosaurs, fight in the Civil War,
Ride a rocket round the stars,
No matter what you think this is,
This is not a guitar.
Verse 2: This is not a guitar,
It is a magic wand.
Whoever I want to be
I just write a new song.
I could be an elephant, be the President,
Be a cool movie star,
No matter what you think this is,
This is not a guitar.
Bridge: Not just a piece of wood,
It's a piece of me
So misunderstood,
More than it seems to be,
Through Life's ups and downs
It's always hanging 'round
To help me say what I feel in my heart.
Half-Verse: It's been a friend to me
Part of my family,
I can't imagine being apart,
No matter what you think this is,
It may resemble what you think it is,
Oh, OK -- that's what it really is ... but this is some guitar!
