For those who know the Solomon Grundy nursery rhyme
The pop gun out law rode from town to town on his steed he’d ride wearing his hat like a crown his name they would call
He gathered up used paper A broken mug and coffee pot A cracked plate, a crooked rake And a tomato that begun to rot He gathered these things thinking
I covered it in blankets Even gave it a thermometer I called up my doctor To see if he could save my monitor He said he’s no repair man
In a corner alone Sat the chair with the teeth Locked away far From anyones reach If you sat down
His colors would not Follow lines A mangled mess The teacher finds “This papers all scribbles
Never go to the circus You wont return the same My image is ruined and a tent is to blame I entered fit
My shadow and I Once played hide and go seek I closed both eyes Not once did i peek I counted to the highest number
My brain hurts from thinking all the thunks that I have thought or is it from the thoughts of thin… now it hurts more than it ought
Melanie and her melodia Traveled across the land That’s an organ on wheels In case you didn’t understand She played her music from her hear…
There once was a man Who was known and feared For the frightnening features Of his beard His hair was long
It human nature to hate the silenc… Since it’s only quite when your al… So surround yourself with many fri… And let sound fill your home
I once met a man Who walked on his hands He’d sit on his head When too tired to stand He’d extend his leg
If I was a ghost for a day There’s so much I would do Like fill the sinks with orange ju… And take everyone’s left shoe Id paint pink polka dots
You could get hit by lightning Or run over by a rock Theres so many ways one could go Its rather quite a shock You could get sucked into a vortex
His pencil would not write No matter how much he would scold… “It’s not about the pencil boy” “It’s about the one who holds it”
