Did it ever happen to you
Strolling streets where you were born
Strangers getting your attention
By blowing on their horn
Asking for directions
Of a street you did not know
So you gave instructions
On which way that they should go
They thanked you for your help
And drove away content
Because the Village idiot
Couldn’t stand embarrassment
You could have said “I’m sorry,
I don’t recognize that street ”
But you had to look intelligent
And hide your indiscreet
Many years has past since then
Yet it has always crossed my mind
How could I have done such a thing
It was Oh so very unkind
To put them on a merry go round
And act just like a fool
It might be just the reason why
Later on, I returned to school
