There once was a poodle who thought he was a cowboy, |
|
He lived in a cage the size of his thumb |
|
And, though his white horse was a box of toothpicks, |
|
he galloped around until hit by a car |
|
Sometimes I flap my arms like a hummingbird |
|
just to remind myself I'll never fly |
|
Sometimes I burn my arms with cigarettes |
|
just to pretend I won't scream when I die |
|
If my life was as long as the moon's, |
|
I'd still be jealous of the sun |
|
If my life lasted only one day, |
|
I'd still be drunk by noon, |
|
Yes, I'd still be drunk by noon. |
|
Sometimes I hope to come down with cancer |
|
At least then I'll get to watch TV all day |
|
And on my deathbed I'll get all the answers |
|
even if all my questions are taken away. |
|
If my life was as long as the moon's, |
|
I'd still be jealous of the sun |
|
If my life lasted only one day, |
|
I'd still be drunk by noon, |
|
I'd still be drunk by noon. |
