Deep Thoughts

Enveloped in the moonlight The moon reflects her eyes She'll never understand it Even though she tries She sits beside her window Lost is distant thought She ponders, ever waiting For the answers that she's sought She wonders about the dinosaurs "Where did all of them go?" "Why do we believe in global warming Because Al Gore told us so?" "How many licks does it take To get to the center of a tootsie roll pop?" "When the aliens land in a farmer's field Who pays them for their crop?" "Why are they always asking, Do you want fries with that?" "Why do all those Derby Jockeys Have to were those funny hats?" "Why is that purple dinosaur That's on tv. still alive?" She's seen a Butterball turkey But what kind of turkey is jive? She wanders why George Washington Really cut down that tree? And why are all the best programs No longer on tv? A question mark appears And hovers over her head Her husband says, "Knock it off, already, And bring your butt to bed!"
