My body's still warm
Who woulda thunk I'd still be alive!!!

I started to think and thank till I'd thunk
of songs I would sing and sang till I'd sung.

And what I would do that I did to be done
was to write what I wrote till I'd written down one.

While I'd sit till I'd sat and was...

There once was a rabbit named Clare
Who'd shake her tart tail anywhere.
A Wolfman named William
was droolin' with willingness
fangs brushed, eyes sparklin', no cares.

He'd practiced his opening line.
On foxes and fawns, it worked fine!
So full of his hairiness
he approached Clare. Can you guess?
She asked “Can you...

and what it is i thunk
double time inside my mind
is i don't think enough

when i'm on the brink of...

One thundering Thursday, in a thicket of trees I had thought I had thunk a real thought.
I was thinking deeply, when alas, creepily, a thought appeared, jeering at the tip of my tongue.
It said “At once you thought you’d thunk a thought, but alas, you’ll...

Who woulda thunk I'd be thrown a curve
Taking pills to relieve my stress
The stress of moving, to calm myself down
Life's like a long game of chess

You make a move and hope for the best
Experience tells you it's right
Then all of a sudden you're thrown a...

Took one or two shortcuts
Thunk I’d get away with it
But it cartainly caught up with me

No time for winning
Now that I’m paying
I’m out of balance

‘Twas meant to pass
But one by one
Let slip my good habits

Thunk I’d take a break
But life got in the way
Let priorities...

I guess I think
About what they think
Well what do you think about
What you think about they think about
I dunno

We can find out anything
By clicking on our phone
And possibilities exist
More than the world has known.

Deliveries come to our door
With anything we need
And plenty that we don’t,
With satisfaction guaranteed.

The opportunities abound
To travel and to learn
As chances keep expanding
To reach goals for which we yearn.

With all...

Late last night as I sat and pondered

And all my thoughts for hours had wandered

I just sat and I thunk

Until all my thoughts stunk

It looks like another night squandered
