I'm just an avatar

I'm just an avatar
Or could I be a Hollywood star?
You wouldn't know if I had a handicap
Maybe I'm just a booby trap.

I'm just an avatar
Possibly I play the steel guitar
Perhaps I am a classic nutcase
Or someone with a pretty face.

I'm just an avatar
Might I be a technology czar?
You may ponder if I'm smart
Or wonder if I'm merely a tart?

I'm just an avatar
Maybe I even drive a squad car
But what you'll discover in my smile
You'll swear I came from an emerald isle.

I'm just an avatar
Stuck here in this online pickle jar
I could be a spell-casting witch
I might be a self-righteous bitch.

It's not hard to be an Original
When you're bored like Jonathan Livingston Seagull
But I beg of you - don't be smitten
By the words I've written.

I'm just an avatar
It's conceivable that I'm really bizarre
Just remember that on the Internet
No one knows if you're blonde or brunette

I can be your cyberspace hottie
But never forget that I am Somebody
I can BE what you want me to BE
As long as we both agree

That I'm just an avatar
That you've admire from afar
I'm a little of this and a little of that
Stop by anytime for a friendly online chat

because I'm just an avatar.
