In an instant you were gone
Taken from us by
another’s selfishness
He was too drunk to
walk
So, he drove instead
Devastation left in
his wake
The children want to
know why
I don’t have the
answer
They look to me for a reason
They look to me for
strength
They cling to me out
of fear
The fear of losing me
too
But they must be my
reason
And they are my
strength
And I cling to them
out of fear
The fear of losing
them too
The Pinball wizard is dead
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Was shot dead by a stranger
It was such a senseless murder
There was a little girl,
Who had a little curl,
Growing in the middle
of her chest
With the sunlight on
her
It looked like a comma
That punctuated her
pert little breasts
(Little girl in this
case refers to stature and not age, so stop composing a complaint already)
(Not really a nursery
rhyme I know
So sorry to the fans
of Longfellow)
The St Valentine’s Day massacre
That was a
bloody occasion
Which just
shows what happens
If you
don’t make a reservation
Roses are red, violets are blue
Do I have to buy flowers for you
Violets are blue,
Roses are red
Ok I understand if I
don’t I’m dead
On Valentine’s Day
The valentine card
said to the stamp
Stick with me and
we'll go places!
While the farmer gave
his wife
Hogs and kisses!
And the caveman gave
his wife
Ughs and kisses!
On Valentine’s Day
The chocolate syrup
said to the ice cream
“I'm sweet on you!”
While the pencil said
to the paper
“I dot my i's on you!”
And the light bulb
asked his girlfriend
Do I mean a whole watt
to you?”
