Yeah, but You Don't Get Paid For What You Do

it may not mean much to you
just drops in the bucket
but I count those drops
watch them pool and collect
filling inch by inch until it overflows
many years later and you have forgotten
what it was I once went on and on about
couldn't contain my excitement
fit to burst from a well timed compliment
the bucket now empty again
thudding with new drops

and you looked at me as I smiled
knowing full well that you don't get it
and that I don't care
