He started A Sharp Enterprise
And it was A Thing of Surprise:
Big Shops you walked up to their shelves
To survey the items yourselves;
Many a sure lasting garment
That should permit no argument,
Which one could wear till Interment
And still not be starved compliment …
A lot of Touching Friendliness
Because of his stamped Godliness:
A Policy of Dialogue
And rejection of Monologue;
He’s floating an Enterprise,
Where one might negotiate price.
Never knew you would be here
Since a kid I wonder about you
I imagine about you, always thought of you
Never thought it would happen
Until the day you walked in
You are my blessing, my first love
You are my sweet melody
You are my beautiful suprise
I am so intrigued with my minds wandering
The deposits of endurance only keep me awake
The criminal element of my soul is yearning
Have I dreamed this adventure?
The killing fields littered with bodies
Too much blood to digest, the animals circling, lust in their eyes
My sense of right and wrong altered
In another state of mind
Go to the tower recognize your width
The eve of tomorrow is here not in the distant future
You are the one element of nature to reclaim your right
Murder is a word only in your competitive nature
Gain the advantage crush the only thing that keeps you alive
The fall winds are shifting, the moon is so full
It's as if you can't come back It's deep in your soul
Breathe, breathe take everything you can
Your life is about to transcend
Why am I not suprise
I didn't even cry
Even tho I know you lied
He didn't strike me a single blow
I willed that had he did
The pain in my gut it ripping me apart
Tearing out my heart
If I only knew that he would take me back
I would filp over my back
I love him still
Why did you lie
Was it to see me cry
You do not love him
I know for a fact you only love Jack
Jack treats you just the way you treated me today
Is that what you want
To have a life that is full of loveless deeds
full of pain and hurt and ache and need
I know that if this is what you seek
Look into my soul take just one peek at the pain you cause in this week
I can't believe my eyes,
as I gaze towards the sunrise,
aqua water at my feet,
As I walk a few more feet,
up and down, there's two, NO, there's three,
I can't believe it, it just can't be,
elegant dolphins,
pure and sweet,
my heart has skipped a beat.
Kanoodle the poodle,
eats blue beans and noodles.
With sticky grey peas,
while he swings in a tree.
A brown fish on toast,
a pink bubblegum roast.
On crackers with cheese,
whilst dancing with fleas.
Red floop juice and blue goop,
makes a purple floop soup.
white fish eyes and black flies,
we've made a floop goop suprise.
as the floop goop cools off,
he starts licking his chops.
He feasts by a tree
then falls fast asleep
ZzZzZzzzzzzzzzzz....

Like dodging darts in the dark
Like dodging darts to the heart
Don’t say what you really mean
Not too smart
Just know your role
Do your part
Lights, camera, action
Let’s pretend satisfaction
While the crowd assumes
The show will resume
Cause I don’t care about you
I just want to please the people
Uh oh, before they predict my intuition
Let’s take a brief intermission
Turn the lights down
Don’t make a sound
Stagehands take your mark
I need you to keep the crowd
In the dark
Set the mood
So we can start the show
But not too soon
I don’t want them to know
Even though I know
What’s supposed to be
I like to mess with reality
I’m an artist, naturally
I like fire, obviously
So I’m going to move this thing
Right on
So just play along
The master of her domain
She controls the stage
I call her surprise mistress
Her surprises are quite endless
While the crowd watches in awe
At the brilliant scene
Only I know what happens
When you don’t see
u really are a beautiful suprise
so unexpected but i'm willling and ready for acceptance
i feel and see
you have so much to teach me
you have already painted a smile
upon my face and in my mind
u are a beautiful suprise
inspiration to the things i write
to the way i feel when i lay down at night
to the radiant glow on my face when i meet with sunrise
you are the beauty that was within me
now has been released
unexpected definitely
rejected not hardly
you are a beautiful suprise
a glorious addition to my life
a ticket to eternal smiles compliments
and pure delight with happiness
you are the very suprise i longed for
desired given and needed more
you are the reason i smile
the reason i talk all the while
the reason for a comb to my hair
the reason for a quick glance and not stare
the reason for carmax to my lips
the reason i'm desperately yearning for a kiss
the reason i write day and night
the reason i'm overjoyed out and inside
you are a beautiful suprise...
