Tiny Nipples

Hey...
Have you seen them today?
I know they wanted to stay...
But hey... hey...
So small you won't see them
With a shirt on or off
Technically existing
But they barely register
Tiny nipples
Less than meets the eye
Tiny nipples
Pleasant little surprise
I know they serve a function
But what, I couldn't say
Their purpose in this life is
Steeped in mystery
If you get to know them
You might even swear
That the place they're going
Really is nowhere
Tiny nipples
Less than meets the eye
Tiny nipples
Pleasant little surprise
Nipples small
Nipples tall
Nipples for
Nipples all
Nipples you
Nipples me
Nipples for
Nipples we
Tiny nipples
Less than meets the eye
Tiny nipples
Pleasant little surprise

Said his name was Will
But I knew he wouldn't
Full of such ideas
And so I knew he couldn't
Represent the all yet
He would speak for none
Unable to be serious
Yet also never fun
He lacked/we lacked
The political will
Cries of those losing
Always remains shrill
Says he cares about us
Stands for every issue
But when you want specifics
He will somehow miss you
Claim our social victories
Were due to his prowess
Yet his voting record
Leaves us unimpressed
He lacked/we lacked
The political will
Cries of those losing
Always remains shrill
We lack the political will
But not the political won't
He lacked/we lacked
The political will
Cries of those losing
Always remains shrill

I get up so early
To enjoy the cool
Rising of the sun as I
Go for a run
After which I return home
Pull out my guitar
Up and down the frets my
Fingers they go far
Serenaded by this beauty
My cat runs away
Ears untrained to my melody
I will try again
Although my fingers are calloused
I can be quite sweet
When I play a melody
It can be such a treat
Foolish felines' eerie ears
Don't do cats correct
Building basic boring blocks
Always circumspect
Serenaded by this beauty
My cat runs away
Ears untrained to my melody
I will try again
I will play my chromatic finger strength exercises
Maybe someday my cat will appreciate these prizes
Serenaded by this beauty
My cat runs away
Ears untrained to my melody
I will try again

Went outside
Laid on the grass
Took out my guitar
Took off shoes and socks
Settled in the sun
Strummed some chords and plucked some strings
Pondered nature and some things
Distracted and didn't notice
When my foot received a bite
Inside, outside, it's no matter
Nature doesn't care
Bushy legs or a bald head
You'll be bitten there
My foot's bite turned to red and purple
It started to hurt
Got all irritated
Fortunately didn't squirt
I went to a doctor
Some prescription tablets
I can bear my foot again
It is now painless
Inside, outside, it's no matter
Nature doesn't care
Bushy legs or a bald head
You'll be bitten there
Finally back to running
Stretches in the grass
But while lying Superman
Something took some bites
Inside, outside, it's no matter
Nature doesn't care
Bushy legs or a bald head
You'll be bitten there

Siblings Are Annoying
01:55

Thought you had escaped 'em
When they went off to college
But now they're back in your house
Sharing all their "knowledge"
Unasked advice spewing forth
Fortunes from a fountain
Needless expertise congealed
Into a greasy mountain
In case you thought I was toying
Just know siblings are annoying
Close as gravity allows
Without two becoming one
Sometimes when they raise their brows
You may have much fun
Excursions to battle boredom
Quirks that could be fun will bug you
Because they're your siblings
In case you thought I was toying
Just know siblings are annoying
Siblings are annoying
In case you thought I was toying
Just know siblings are annoying

Cheese is crusty, sitting out
Better order a whole new one
Vegetables thrown on dry bread
Not ideal, but cause no bout
Old machines pour out the ice
Sliding like excreted waste
Sugar mixed with frozen water
Better get used to the taste
Pizza joint is where it's at
Feel warmth rising from the oven
If you want to see the people
Where else are you gonna go?
Big stromboli full of cheese
Not much sauce to balance out
Veggies tasty, sure to please
But so wet the bottom's soggy
One side's hot and dry with flour
Other's cool and soaked with water
It is tasty, to be sure
Just wishing it's texture's there
Pizza joint is where it's at
Feel warmth rising from the oven
If you want to see the people
Where else are you gonna go?

Unintended Cat Face

Beautiful geometry
Glass shapes that look regal
Light filtering through as rainbow
This door to the outside world
Thick enough to hold the elements
Light enough to shift
Sticks enough in summertime
Bump it with your hip
Beautiful geometry
Glass shapes that look regal
Light filtering through as rainbow
This door to the outside world
Plain white panel
Two different locks
Unintended cat face
That really rocks!
