The Waffle Or the Pancake

Do I want a waffle, or do I want a pancake? Do I want a black eye, or do I want a belly ache? Do I want an Edsel, or do I want a 'Vette? Should I take a Train, Or fly in a Jet? Is the weather cold outside, or is it very hot? Is there boogers in my nose, or is it just some snot? The bed is very soft, and I cannot sleep so sound I should leave the city, and move myself downtown If you have an Apple, and your grades are low give it to the teacher, and cover it with snow Dazzle'em with brilliance, and never let it show that if you had any brains, it would surely show So if the preachers talking, and you are drawing breath it was exaggerated about your timely death your mother told you plainly, an orphan you would be if you did not dot your "I's", and cross your capital "T's". so listen very carefully, and try to imagine how you do not live in the past, your life happens now
