...and when they stay
as things tend to do
luckily there's always something
that grab's your attention
(usually near your shoes) so your eyes dance around the floor
and the mailman walks to another door
and just before melancholy sets in -
TICK!
"SNACK TIME baby!" everyday at 4. Eat a treat
clean it up nice n neat
the day goes on a few more hours
maybe it's best to to digest
under the covers, asleep? wake at 6
dried saliva round the lips
naptime drool
a pillowcase's pool
but ain't no fool
'left enough room
for dinner time with your friends
dressed up all nice, feelin cool food goes round
drinks go down
people smile and stuff
then go home and smile and stuff
then wake up and smile and stuff
but in the dreams?
the bluff is up DEMONS! MONSTERS!
LIZARDS AND EX-LOVERS!
