like little tin soldiers on a parade field
evil stick figures march to my morning drums -
the tiny heartbeats in my wind up bird chest
plastic in melting sun

in single file they goose step and two step
sieg heil and full moon the furious queen
and the cat in the hat on the window sill
licking up honeyed sun

wearing spiked helmets over tinfoil hats
the forces of good bagpipe and drum
through thistle and heather shouting ne obliviscaris
shaking fists at the darkening sun

the battle ensues - light clashes with darkness
thor thunderbolts and loud donnerschlag
cracks monogrammed crystal and the alice tea set
silver in sparkling sun

victorious as always the black clan of duncan
drives evil stick figures into the sea
bloods thicker than water and darkness succumbs
to the light of the rising sun
