I Only Eat Worms On Wormday
WORLD BORE ONE
I don’t know very much at all
But I know oak trees grow strong and tall
I don’t know why I sometimes stumble and fall
I know what I have, what I want and that which I need
And that each oak tree starts with one tiny seed
I can’t explain why some things are good or bad
I don’t understand why there’s less happy than sad
I do know that all I want for my good deeds is a simple
I can't date a debutante who defines the word "style"
I don’t pretend to know about important things
But I do know about wedding rings
Not that there’s a woman waiting for me
Because most women want their swains to have a diploma and a degree
Please don’t ask me queries I can answer not
I can tell you which cup of sassafras tea is cold and which is hot
I can feed the chickens, milk the cows and do some other chores
But I cannot for the life of me explain why there are so man f*****g wars
