Ego and the Great Beyond
Just beyond the tip of the nose
Piercing out with perfect vision
Through beady almost human eyes
There is absolutely nothing to see
Because this story is all about me
Me me me with a cherry on top with me
Stomping up and down crying for mommy
In a pajama-ed, red faced, full blown tantrum
In trauma with my drama till I turn blue
Holding my breath till I fade to black
You must turn in the opposite direction now
This is going to get pretty sick quickly
Even ugly if you look back
It has nothing to do with you so leave
If I don't get cakes and chocolates
In exactly five seconds
I'm going to explode or something worse
By plunging my foot or thumb inside my mouth
(whichever comes first or is closer)
Teaching you all a lesson once and for all
No one comes between me and my digestion
There is nothing beyond my nose and toes
Nothing between my ears worth listening to
Nothing worth knowing
This is no mystery
So don't even go there mister
