I Can'T Tell Is That a Fountain Or a Mountain
I CAN’T SEE, IS THAT A FOUNTAIN OR A MOUNTAIN?
Do you see that mountain which towers us to ants
If a dude climbs that he’s got to get short of breath and
patenttly pants
There are rocks to hold on to but you’d better hang on tight
Unless you want to take a thousand foot unscheduled flight
The idea is to go up and prevent any of us to go down early
I worried about Big Bob, because he’s smart but burley
Now let’s begin the ascent and make a pact that we will prevail
Not one of us twenty two people cannot fail
So we grab hold of the rocks and first it wasn’t so scary
And a few minutes later is when I prayed for a mountain climber’s fairy
With each rock we gripped our resolve became stronger with heart
Every crevice, every stone and every natural element played its part
The first three days weren’t that bad, not as bad as expected
After day number four you’re apologizing to anyone you ever neglected
Then arrives five, because the fifth day is when you run out of hope
And some can’t take it and climb the mountain for more dope
