What Ever Shall I Do
What Ever Shall I Do
Don’t look to long behind the curtain
The wizard hasn’t got a clue
Don’t follow a rabbit to a hole in the ground
The grave is all he’ll do
Don’t sit at the table of the mad hatter
Changing seats with worthless words
And most of all don’t follow a step into the dark woods
Don’t wait for tinker bell to take you to the promise land
You might find a hook has caught you and the alligators are close at hand
If you find your short
Then not
Don’t listen to a smoking worm
And never let the jabberwockies found out what you learned
Don’t let mice scare you from your sense of time
If your house gets bullied as it often can
Don’t expect a super to fly in and take you by the hand
Don’t let a basket of collected stuff be your only game
The crumbs left behind someone else will claim
And if you want to follow
Remember what happens to sheep
And don’t forget to be contrary you will never loose sleep
The twist of each story is to get what you have
And keep you in a place of
Never Never land
