The Geekers Ode Author Unknown

THE GEEKER’S ODE It’s three in the morning and I ain’t been to bed I thought I’d sleep, but I got high instead I’m geeking out the window through a crack in the curtain, I thought I heard something, but I’m not really certain. There it is again, that strange awkward sound, Like someone’s out there, sneaking around. I wonder who they are and what they want – Is it a thief in the night or the cops with a warrant? I think I see someone, as many as three – There’s two on the ground and one in the tree! It must be the cops out there again, They’re watching me too close to see where I’ve been. They have night vision goggles to see in the dark, I HAD a pair – but I tweaked them apart! They can hear every sound with their high-tech toys, Even a whisper, or the slightest noise. They still are there to keep an eye on me, I think they’re on the move, if only I could see. Well now I’m in luck for here comes the sun – I’ll catch him this time when he starts to run. Now it is bright as a new day dawns – Where are the cops? Where have they gone? They faded with the night right in front of me, The two on the ground and the one in the tree. I could go to bed, but I wouldn’t sleep – The thought of the cops is making me freak! How could they leave and me not see them go? Either they’re really fast or I’m really slow So I’ll sit right here another day and night, And geek out the window and see if I’m right. Cause I’ll never know for sure if it’s really the feds, Unless I stay up again and don’t go to bed!!
