Sons of the sun,
come together as one.
Fester and boil,
melt into the soil.

Fertilize our mother Earth,
our crutch since our birth.
The birth of man began the end,
for man and Mother Nature are not friends.

Modern day industry saturates our minds,
with pretty toys and fancy cars alike.

We feed into the killers, as Mother Nature dies,
our bodies and our minds, both industrialized.

That's why I plea,
for the sake of you and me,
sons of the sun,
come together as one.
Fester and boil,
melt into the soil,
and save us all.

Listen woman,
I ain't no toy.
Listen closely now,
I ain't your boy.

Do you hear me?
Hear me loud and clear.
Listen woman,
don't wanna see you here.

I'm done with you,
be done with me,
no one likes a ******,
no one likes crazy.

Did you hear?
I want you gone.
Listen up,
I want you out by dawn.

Hey woman,
you're sounding crazy.
And I won't,
let you be crazy with me.

I'm done with you,
be done with me,
no one likes a ******,
no one likes crazy.

Get out of my hair,
get out of my face,
get off my back,
get out of my space!

My bones are shaking,
rattling, aching,
and I'm still waiting,
for you.

My body's on fire,
I'm feverish, tired,
my mind is wired,
I'm blue.

I can feel you fading away,
so listen to me when I say,
I need you to stay,
I need you.

My eyes lids are heavy,
my breathing unsteady,
legs feel like confetti,
I'm weak.

I feel like a fool,
thinking about you,
but it's your love,
I seek.

I can feel you fading away,
so listen to me when I say,
I need you to stay,
I need you.

'Twas midnight in the schoolroom
And every desk was shut
When suddenly from the alphabet
Was heard a loud "Tut-Tut!"

Said A to B, "I don't like C;
His manners are a lack.
For all I ever see of C
Is a semi-circular back!"

"I disagree," said D to B,
"I've never found C so.
From where I stand he seems to be
An uncompleted O."

C was vexed, "I'm much perplexed,
You criticise my shape.
I'm made like that, to help spell Cat
And Cow and Cool and Cape."

"He's right" said E; said F, "Whoopee!"
Said G, "'Ip, 'Ip, 'ooray!"
"You're dropping me," roared H to G.
"Don't do it please I pray."

"Out of my way," LL said to K.
"I'll make poor I look ILL."
To stop this stunt J stood in front,
And presto! ILL was JILL.

"U know," said V, "that W
Is twice the age of me.
For as a Roman V is five
I'm half as young as he."

X and Y yawned sleepily,
"Look at the time!" they said.
"Let's all get off to beddy byes."
They did, then "Z-z-z."
