Today for a change I will sleep until noon
eat my soup with a fork and my fries with a spoon

I shall jump from a plane with a handful of clay
Sculptin' my neighbours before landing in hay

I'll refer to my boss as "Old Mr. Klombus"
And sign any check with a square or a rhombus

Today is a day that will be like no other
I'll call my mom dad, call my Uncle my brother

I'll react with a smile when I'm filled with sorrow
And I refer to today when I speak of tomorrow.

We lost a mentor when we lost Dr. Seuss;
now PW is here to fix that goose.
We will allow PW to run amuck and loose
letting him capture us in his noose.
