I am the grit in the gears, the missing bolt, I am the poker of sticks into spokes.
I like to know how things work, but sometimes when I take them apart and rebuild them, I have a few pieces left over.
I am a man, so I tend to leave reading the instructions until after it goes wrong.
And like all men I have a comprehensive mental map of the world and never need to ask directions.
I never get lost, only sometimes I'm late, or end up in the wrong place entirely.
It's what we do.

Oh yes, I used to own this record. Maybe I still do, in a dusty box somewhere.
It was actually the b-side of Manfred Mann's "The Mighty Quinn"
My siblings and I used to stay up on a Saturday night and play B-sides. This was a favorite because it was so corny. Loved hearing it again after many years. Thanks to Youtube.
marvellous- having fun and not taking themselves too seriously
