Chatter More Chatter

I look forward to the chatter of the day Sounds like soap opera Who fought who Who cried Who made friends Who drank gin Who became engaged Who flew into a rage Someone died after eating Apple pie Who kicked the hornets hive They slapped five talking jive Look alive look alive That old Ken Cave never fades He has no shame And some one started a fire We found a hose and drenched the flames Whose to blame Who got game Wonderful to see everybody living and Listening to hear neighborhood CHATTER Rickby spit shined his boots preparing for Another tour of duty Afghanistan or Pakistan We're hoping he comes home alive, unlike Stewart's son. Rickby is only 23 He's going on his second tour of duty Now with complete compliance there was Laughter in the air gossip entertained The atmosphere Times were good times were bad There was plenty of living to DELVE into bathe your Self in who went to JAIL Who paid bail Things to be done on the run Having fun having fun Indulge indulge it's all good
