Yawning Wars
It's getting late at night
The perfect time to start a war
All we needs a keeper
Someone to hold the score
I come on rather strongly
Right out the starting gate
Throwing two yawns in your direction
Because it's getting late
The first one catches you by surprise
The second you deflect
But you can see by the look in my eyes
I'm not through yawning yet
Before I have time to react
You throw one back at me
Pretty soon the entire room
Is in a yawning melee
We vow to take no prisoners
In this battle between you and me
We will both keep yawning
Till one of us falls asleep
