A Snarly Response To a Stupid Request
My timely explanation is coming soon
Don’t hold your breath, I beg you please,
As soon as the cow jumps over the moon
I’ll write you a note, hoping to appease.
I do not have the info right now at hand
I am too busy to do the needed research,
Besides, I already have my day planned,
And your stupid request puts me in a lurch.
Consider Google, Wikipedia, or another
A wealth of information at your fingertips,
If all else fails, you could ask your brother
Or go to tik-tok and stare at the newsclips.
You know, I hate to be so blunt with you,
But just how important is this information?
Your request has come to me out of the blue
And, frankly, to you I have no obligation.
So, a timely explanation is coming soon
Don’t hold your breath, I beg you please
As soon as the cow jumps over the moon,
I’ll write you a note, hoping to appease.
