Haves look across the room... to the have-nots Have-nots look across the room... to the haves... All is reflexive here... Cuz there's no "happen" in happenstance... It don't matter if the sun rises in the east Why does the sun wish to look askance... And I sit atop this mountain in the dead of winter Where all dignity is beleaguered Can you lend me just one reaffirmation I swear I can spell everything back In incantation... You make another retrenchment Bury the present tense to hide your complexion You stick the gobstopper under your tongue Just you wait and see how long you can harangue... But I hear the wraith through your corduroy Boy, you should have seen the look on your face, oh, so terrified Mr. Plenipotentiary, how ironic you can't think of a better envoy I suppose you'll be working late, so I'll turn on your light... Enough about me, let's talk about you Enough about you, let's talk about the weather You know I could be your Pilate I can save you, you know I will not decanter you anymore If you just let me aver... And why waste your breath On words like bouleversement? Even a blind man can see well behind him Even an idiot doesn't have to be convinced to believe it And why waste your time Taking your time to yield What is the worst thing that can happen? What more is there to wield? So for God's sake stand up For Gods Sake, STAND UP!!! The only taboo is in tabooing you... [This message has been edited by Stanley Climbfall (11-25-2002 04:33 PM).] |
