I had fun with this one... tongue firmly wedged in cheek. I channeled my 3 yr. old granddaughter's sensibilites to explore the topic.

Lyrics

Palindrome

They call me a palindrome...
Not quite sure what that is.
What the heck is a palindrome...
Sounds like an answer on a quiz.
Is it some kind of dinosaur...
Or something you might use on a job?
Please don’t call me a palindrome
I’d rather you just call me Bob.

Chorus:
Ain’t no need to call me any names...
Ain’t no need to be a snob.
Please don’t call me a palindrome
I’d rather you just call me Bob.
I’d rather you just call me Bob.

Bob - that guitar is so, so beautiful. I like this musing on what an unfamiliar word might mean and being unwilling to but the guitar down to go look it up. It becomes a musing on attention and focus and priorities.
