The Man in the Mirror
Posted on diciembre 22nd, 2007 leslie dean brown
When you get what you want in your struggle for self,
And the world makes you King for a day,
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that man has to say.
For it isn’t your Father, or Mother, or Wife,
Who judgement upon you must pass.
The feller whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the man staring back from the glass.
He’s the feller to please, never mind all the rest,
For he’s with you clear up to the end,
And you’ve passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend.
You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you’ve cheated the man in the glass.

hey nif
actually we do know the author of this now… I can’t remember his name
…look it up on google…the original title is;
«The guy in the glass»
and the correct first line is;
«When you get what you want for your struggle for pelf»
