There are fish in my pond, man
They skip from pad to pad
They climb ladders and chew gum, chick
And blow big bubbles for Chad

They wear high healed pumps
All sequined pink with dew
Kaleidoscope's wide thumps
Girl's exceptionally Drew

Yet they’re splashed and they’re dashed
Trashed by dog's *******'
Scared pixie eyes splash
Asphalt mascara bleeds crimson

Those fish in that pond, man
Walk from fool to fool
Vamped but not tramped, parading for you
All clutching dreams to swim with the school
