WHERE'S THE WIZARD

Let’s dig up a poem we wrote years ago
When we thought that we knew
What we think we now know
Remove it from then
And dress it as now
A long fallow field
We still long to plow

Seasons have passed
The scare poles remain
As tin men still search
For a heart and a brain
Cuz the things we knew then
Well, they’re still the same
An old deck of cards
Reshuffled, renamed

I think I'll munch a bunch of Kap'n Krunch for lunch over this one. I've got a hunch that scrunch --- Aw, enough already, Wolf! ~ Ut-shupped
