The Many Faces Of Bill
.
At work and around people I didn’t know, I was a straight arrow,
Always acting serious and somber walking the straight and narrow.
As I progressed through life with friends that were very close to me,
I became a different person out in the world playing with glee.

The Many Faces Of Bill
.
All through my career, only the serious side of me showed at work,
But on my time, a wild and crazy guy came out that went berserk.
Ninety Five % of the people that knew me, thought I was a bore,
But out there with my friends we acted crazy right down to the core.
.

The straight squared away me always did what was expected,
With the correct dress code that just never had to be corrected.
My straight serious face was always there when it needed to be,
Here is that face that was only seen by my formal friends, you see.

When I was drafted into the Army, I made a lot of good friends,
These were the hang out in bars having fun drinking brave men.
I left my serious side at the office back where I came from in Borger,
Here is the face I wore as a brave soldier shown sort on in order.

On the weekends, my cowboy often did come out of me to play.
We drank beer and two stepped right across that floor I do say,
I was fearless and lost all of my stress when the cowboy was loose,
Here’s the Cowboys face out there feeling like a big old bull moose.

We started square dancing and formed the Mickey Mouse Gang,
We become good friends and the Mickey Mouse song we sang.
When dancing or playing out there in the world, we were crazy nuts,
Here’s my face out there dancing and playing off my little old butt.

Clogging was the next activity that brought out the fun side of me
With Miscues And The Cuties, we all dressed up so funny to see.
And danced all over the area to bring joy for us and our audience.
All my fun looking faces shown during this time were no coincidence.

Rhythm Aces clog team fun was perhaps my wildest times of all.
We did competition clogging and let it all hang out having a ball.
This was a group of fun loving people that all loved each other,
Here’s some of my faces of pure delight sharing fun with one another.

In recent years I’ve begun to act a little bit silly for a little fun,
When I see something that looks strange or weird as I do run.
I have to grab it and act up a little kind of like my old friend Gary,
So here’s some of my old guy weird looks with some that are hairy.

Since old Hawg Jaw Bill showed up around here, he’s been fun too,
This old grizzly looking guy is perhaps the essence of me all through.
It’s been fun during this last phase of my interesting long life,
With the faces below that have served me well with no strife.
.

It’s strange that after all I’ve been through living life putting on a show.
That the serious guy in me still comes with someone I don’t know.
I guess he will always be in there waiting for a sign to go away,
When that guy becomes my friend and we both start to play.
