It Was A Lovely Fall Day
It was a lovely fall day
So I went falling away
Down the hill luckily toward
A hospital at the bottom (I aint
that dumb)
Waiting Solidly On The Mountains
Waiting solidly on the mountains
Shimmering down the long fountains
Thinking with tears in my eyes
And then I yell out, "What a
surprise!"
Snickers Was (Is) A Candy Bar
Snickers was (is) a candy bar
Which when eaten made me go har
har har
And as I would laugh up to the
stars
I'd just snort out a few more
har har har's
Minimizing Progress
Minimizing progress
Is a sin, yes yes yes
and obnoxiously making more
Is a thing which I adore
