My left foot
Is of a hoot
Dancing wild
Like a small child
She's my despair
Not very fair
My twigs wriggle
No, not a giggle
It shakes my bark
Not a funny lark
Leaves go brown
Making me frown
I want them green
For Halloween
I'll have to slap
That young flap
Until she's nice
With good advice
Nows she's done
I'll have my fun
Looking at birds
In their nests.
Rope did pull
Bell did toll
Sound stood still
Where is sound
Tis high above
Tis lowly down
Tis not here
In deaths ear
Coffin did slide
Flames did engulf
Not one heard
My deep sob
It tried, but
Did not escape
From fiery lips
Turned into ash
To be thrown
On stormy seas
To worldly sail
For my evermore
Gone
She doesn't shower
Nor take a bath
Neither does he
She doesn't look
At her nakedness
In her mirror
Neither does he
She does not
Spend hours
Applying make-up
Neither does he
What they do, do
Is get on with it
Just like all flies do.
Back into our first love
Is where I want to be
Your smile in my eyes
My smile shining back
Our hearts are as one

My tingling lips await
For yours upon mine
Making my heart flow
With a love so strong
That I will surely burst
Oh my love , my love

It will not be so long
For our arms to entwine
Caress, oh sweet caress
Will be ours to share
Every hour of our day
Back into our first love.
They are waiting
Patiently waiting
Waited this long
Can wait some more
They know this world
Will remain in upheaval
For many a century
Or more
They know that mankind
Will self destruct
When it will be
They don't care
They are patient
They are waiting.
Wait until I've gone
I feel emotion
Of what?
I know not
Deep so deep

A deep sob
From ?
Very low

My eyes awash
With these tears
I don't know why
I feel this way
It's so strong
This sorrow

I'm
crying now
So bad do I feel
What is it ?

Maybe we all
Have this unknown
I don't know why
A great pain

There's no reason
No reason at all
But it's got me
Helpless in its grip.
Feet slosh in watery boots
Squelch is my sad music
Stink is what I'm made of
And others by my side
Fear is my companion
So through and through
Every day and every night
Every shell my night mare
Some friends are no more
As I'm here before sunrise
Awaiting the dread whistle
Rifle clutched in shaky hands
I think of my sweetheart Mary
To whom I shall be wedded
Of my brothers and sisters
Father and dear old mam
All too soon , I'll be over the top
Throwing fear to another place
Anytime now we'll be on our way
I hope I'll let no one down.
