Did You Remember To Forget To Recall
Did you remember to forget to recall?
Have you turned what was large into small?
When the coaching kicks in
Being blessed with our gin
Is it sit down to stand up and fall?
Could you bring us in a peach my love?
On a platter silver with blues my dove?
On days such as these
Leave us not speak in threes
And travel next door from above
Are there problems with the teens?
In the middle of halfway betweens?
Rub the foreheads with oil
Trap the footprints in soil
And serve them Kentucky fried spleens
Should we blot out the sun with a cloud?
Cause the shade to mingle out loud?
Put the boat in the car
Close the tab at the bar
And wander off naked but proud
Must you always turn to the right?
Wash your head with mangos each night?
It’s the sound of your screams
In your radical dreams
That gives us all a good fright
Its lovely to think that you care
Adding funk to the mess that’s your hair
When the hags call you yonder
Will you sit still and ponder?
Or swallow, press and stare?
Ugly though this may be
In the middle of the end you’ll find me
But if you saddle the load
and impose your own mode
Then the moon will follow the tree
