Balderdash

Balderdash I will not listen to iris eyes, those lids for covers; frightened lies. And cannot hear the nostril's fear that calls you to me over here. Balderdash is all I'll say. And keep my distance and my way Balderdash I will not listen to faint of heart. Half a story; a lie apart. And cannot wait for one more pause. A lie; your drama; without a cause. Balderdash is all I'll say. And keep my distance and my way Balderdash I will not listen to yellow bellies who's waves break lies to coward's deli's. And will not watch a brow fall down without it's fear; without it's crown. Balderdash is all I'll say. And keep my distance and my way Balderdash I will not listen to crooked smiles who's heart beats twice in self denial. And will not watch the gizzard sink to form a gully's fear of shrink. Balderdash is all I'll say. And keep my distance and my way Balderdash I will not listen to jointed nose that prays for healing, as one knows. And will not notice the patient smile that lies back to you a waiting while. Balderdash is all I'll say. And keep my distance and my way Balderdash is all I say. Balderdash. Going my way.
