We can beat it around
and then
beat it down
insuring the bruises
a well deserved crown
daring the prophets
making sure they're engaged
all balconies burned
as religion, enraged
no gods to address
as demons my own
in places hard pressed
texts on the phone
follow the bunny
be sure he's not lost
no, it's not funny
for shoelaces, crossed
grab hold a pencil
and write these words true
the moment essential
from red, green
and blue

follow the bunny
be sure he's not lost
no, it's not funny
for shoelaces, crossed
grab hold a pencil
and write these words true
the moment essential
from red, green
and blue
