Just One More Dumpling
Just one more dumpling, and I'll be cool
No don't give up, it's way too soon
Heavy dreariness in the room
I was never ready for this nauseating mood
All I have
All is here
All is well
All is happy
All is great
All is smiles
All is care
All is gratitude
But just one more dumpling made me sick
Sick to the bone
Sick in the heart.
God of gluttony
Forgive me
I know I'm not meant to be this free
But there is something that I really need
So let me, to be happy
But I can't stop
Here comes a lotus petal
Drenched in the honey
I'm going to explode
But I can't stop.
I'm happy
I have it all
Seeing anything happy for me is gold
Let's just wait
One more day
To let this feeling go away
This feeling that I would
But wish not that I should
To have that one more bite
Of dumpling out of everyone's sight
But at the end of today
Everyone will go away
And I shall fade out of their minds
So is this why we should seize the day?
The dollar bills
Bills so tight
They mean nothing to me
Let them fly
Across the bridge
Across the room
Across the sunset I see at noon
In the sky,
In which I say, oh my oh my
Here's another one
Lost in the breeze
I would wheeze
And end with a faint
But delicate, painful sigh.
