Eat the Cake

It'll speak to you when you wake Thus I wallow long in bed Till I hear and duly feed Then I'll rise and eat the cake It'll speak to you when you wake Even at times before bed Then you're waiting as dawn peeks To run with no time for cake It'll speak to you when you wake But ignore it before bed In nightmares it'll haunt your sleep Till you walk and forgo cake It'll speak to you when you wake Why study when time for bed Books are weary but sleep's sweet Thus you'll eat and keep the cake It'll speak to you when you wake If not you'll despise your bed To roam and ceaselessly seek For real food and not the cake
