The Gal/Guy in the glass.
When you get what you want in your struggle for self,
and the world makes you star of the day.
Just go to a mirror and look at yourself,
And see what *that* one has to say.
It is not husband, father, mother or wife
Whose judgment upon you must pass;
The person whose verdict counts most in your life,
Is the one staring back from the glass.
Some people may think you a straight shootin' chum,
And call you a great girl or guy,
But the one in the glass says you're only a bum,
If you can't look yourself in the eye.
That's who you need please, never mind all the rest,
Who is with you clear up to the end.
You have passed your most dangerous, difficult test;
If the one in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
countless pats on the back as you pass.
But your final reward will be heartache and tears;
if you've cheated the one in the glass.
