Where moonbeams dance upon the ice
on frosted lakes of arctic flow,
a peaceful calm the night suffice
where moonbeams dance.
A tatted curtain veils the show
of dappled blue white light precise
dancing across the powdered snow.
A scene so pure and simply nice
that one cannot resist the show.
My feet move freely on the bice
where moonbeams dance.
Words are strange when first letters are switched
An example is “bice noobies” see, our life is enriched
Sing along with “Bony Tennet” we resort
Wearing “talse feeth” and “shockey jorts”
If I lost you along the way, I'm a “bon of a sitch”
Beautiful day, towards the endless horizon
a tangerine and yellow sunlight's heart
has burst with a vibrant bright capri
and azure skies, as shadowed zaffre rolling ships
meet the silent bice cerulean horizon.
Extending giving way to the clear mirror
bleu de france sea denim shadows and the scent of salt.
Into the captivating beautiful smudges
of coral, lavender, turquoise, oceans' depths
that cannot compare; to the deep-sea creatures
that prefer to remain that lures divers into their depths.

Did you ever see a cow with a green eyebrow
If you did, you'd best lay off the hooch
Hooch in moderation is acceptable
But if you see a pink elephant fly by your window
You have definitely over indulged
Another sign is when the things you say
Don't exactly match what you're thinking
Such as instead of saying, “You have nice boobs”
You actually say “bice noobs”
Has a nice ring to it as does “a great sackbide”
Hey I don't make this stuff up you know!
So getting back to that strange looking cow
If you haven't been drinking... and you see one
Run, don't walk, to the nearest shrink!

Jack and jill went up a hill to meet bill in the dark at the park and heard the hogs and
dogs go bark at jack bice who is the nice rice guy who loves to cry over pie in the sky
while he is about to die
