Dear Child
Dear child
I want to teach you to love
Rubbing my scruffy beard
Wizened by age time and worry
Oh boy oh boy
I want to sing you that song tonight
Making you whole
Cause I only just wanted to be whole
You know
Humanity I do love you
I know what ee said about hating humanity
Cause I understand that too
But tonite I just want to sing
Singsingsing into bluehaze
Into blue haze of smoke screened room
Where we all join hands
Unto new genre of hopeloveunity
Where dignitys grace is making her presence felt
As eloquent as a shaker table.
