The city-man came back to his house After a day of working He took an everyday shower And during the shower, he screamed. Screamed, 'cause he found a tick A little black tick, with his tiny legs Sticking out in a still, terrifying manner
The city-man turned off the shower, And jumped out, pale and scared He pulled out the tick And flushed him away
Not much were his efforts worth Few days later, the red alert There's no return The red alert No return, no return, no return
"Not much were your efforts worth, I've burrowed underneath your brain So watch the slow and painful growth, And your mind stray off its lane."
And so the tick kept singing his song On and on, long long long And thus the man turned his head to face the Moon.
