Canto MYOB

If you stare at the grass long enough
it will turn blue like your mothers eyes
the strands each lined up like soldiers
1....2.....3.....4.
You should cut it ya knw, chief
I know yer hand hurt from cuttin the switches
but you should cut it ya know.
and a one
and a two
and a three
and a four
They all come marching together
In groups of 10 or 12
with thur Guns and thur attitudes
smirks and smiles look the same in the rain
same on any mans face
same on any mans land

you can NOT ride bikes in the mudd
you'de have to wear boots and pedal harder

can i interest you in a bagel she said?
no you can't
no you cannot interest me in such a thing
i prefer omelets in the morning
and flowers in the eve

shun the non believers
and rant if they ask you not
because the grass is blue
and the cereal tastes better red
and i wear the flag as a shoe lace in my left shoe

i whisper things in my sleep she said
i hear every word you mutter he replied
she was embarrased and asked him to sleep on the couch
he made her cereal in the morning
she made him an omelet
