Almonds

I don’t know why I like almonds so much Going nuts Crunch crunch I don’t know why the caged bird sings Or why he can’t just hold it in Walnut, peach pit, peanut, primal Peppercorn prairies, Pine nuts, poppy seeds, almonds galore Taste them taste them Crunch some more I don’t know the thing about almonds so much Maybe cuz they crunch like Seashells beneath my feet Maybe cuz the salt sticks like Sweat and the ocean From a day on the beach. I don’t know why I like almonds so much Crunch crunch Enough is enough Of this purple daydream Pecans of thunder Send me to sleep Crunch much?
