Analysis of Michael Jackson Moment



think deep
stand still & repeat
he came to our hearts with "BEN"
then it was on the Wiz
it was all show bis
tossed the coin in the fountain
could see "The man in the mirror",
asking for the world to change
had his hair caught on fire with a commercial
caught in the middle playing second fiddle
Michael you taught us to smile to have dreams like a child

don't mean a thing listening to Billie Jean
taught us to Beat it
you were gone too soon
now the world turns to gloom
we desperately need you back
your moon walk was sensational
care to sit with me a while
to be just like an adorable child
the world outside is acting a bit wild
R.I.P. Michael Jackson
