Why is it that
The mood always strikes
At the most improper time
When you least expect?
At the most uncertain time
That is when the mood strikes
Strikes this poor old mime
Who is trying to make things rhyme
Until the mood strikes him
At the most inopportune time.
Why is it that
The mood always strikes
At the most improper time
When you least expect?
For that is the mood
And that is always good
That the mood strikes
At the most difficult of times.
