We are not a thing, We're a happening We're coming and going all of the time Never staying still, just like my rhyme We are not a thing, We're a happening You can't point at me! If you try I will disappear in the blink of an eye We are not a thing, We're a happening You can't drive a wheel because it's not a car If you try you won't get very far We are not a thing, We're a happening Doctors know this because they've seen Inside our skin with an Xray machine We are not a thing, We're a happening Still looking for the book, for some thing to read? Or maybe the beginning of a seed We are not a thing, We're a happening Without the fish and egg where would we be There'd be no you, there'd be no me We are not a thing, We're a happening We're coming and going all of the time Never staying still, just like my rhyme

We are not a thing
