A Dumb Squirrel

The Squirrel climbed a tree in a dash 
While climbing he got a big gash 
He went to the store
In through the door
But soon found he forgot his cash

That's Just How the World Works

No one saw it coming, the time of doom now at hand 
War is around every corner, no one can help us now
Bombs fly and the innocent die
That’s just how the world works

Try to see the good in the world young child 
For if you don’t who will
If not now then when 
The fate of the world rests in your hands

As one generation fades 
Another shall rise from the ashes 
Spread around by war and destruction
The fate of the world rests in your hands

Heroes will emerge and enemies will be defeated
But more enemies will rise 
And our heroes will fall
That’s just how the world works

The war will end and allies will part 
Until another war starts 
Smoke filled skies will clear up
And fallen enemies shall sulk
That’s just how the world works

Fat Kat

There once was a very large cat
who once ate a very small rat
The rat tasted very bad
and made the cat very sad.
