Mind Control

I've often heard it said That people can control your mind A gift that's extremely rare And almost impossible to find All they do is just speak a word And your mind's no longer your own You do whatever they tell you to Even things you don't condone "Bark like a dog", they might say And before long you're saying, "Ruff" You're not in control, and you don't know When to say you've had enough They can make you do most anything And you'll be none the wiser They might tell you to eat that worm And call it an appetizer Even the written word is all it takes To put you under their spell They can make you act like an Idiot And look like one as well So beware of all those hypnotizing words Especially the ones that you see It's too late, I'm one of those people And your minds belong to me

Funny. If I had a mind to control I am sure it would be in your command. You know what they say: "The waist is a terrible thing to mind." Or. was that the other way around?
