The Bog of Incredible Stench!

The bog of Incredible Stench Not a place I knew of when young Not a place I'd ever contemplate going to Not a place I'd recommend – learning cure? @Not a place I want to be@ Why do so many do so many regrettable things Evita – no regrets? They wish! Borrow a life or two – hind – no regrets? ≠ I knew bizarre wear of the Emperor New life – borrowed life New life – better life? New life – old strife ♣Invisible hands to help the Emperors into their robes♣ Invisible mantle stolen on view – star wear All on show invisible bizarre wear Star wear - star war Poor star? Poof gone? Mantle gone! Stardom gone? © Catch a falling star for the pocket New life – borrowed life Catch a falling star for the pocket New life – better life Catching a falling star for the pocket New life – new lies Catch a falling star for the pocket New life – old life, old strife! Will you go To ware stench? Will you go following stardom? Does it happen or is it taken Nurtured thievery Kept not given back Thievery of many to greedy to know They're Emperors on Show
