Under Attack
I thought I had laid down on the couch
Next thing I knew I yelled out “Ouch !”
I was under attack in my dreams
What was forgotten was after me it seems
I figured that I could run fast enough
Or maybe these problems weren’t so tough
I was a fool to ignore such a tough situation
Even though I was relaxing on my vacation
I can’t hide ‘cos they have now found me
How can I tell you that the faces are on the trees ?
All I can do is hope this is a dream
And wake up before I fall or scream
A Marvel of a Man
Marvin was a marvel of a man
I should know, I’m a hug fan
Wearing blue jeans and a black shirt
He’d cause all the girls to flirt
He was classy and very smart
A fine fellow with a good heart
He was surely no cowardly lion
If not successful, he’d die tryin’
The church bells rang last Sunday
Pastor O’Dell asked us to pray
Business carried on as usual
Your absence has taken its toll
Carnival
of Thrills
Three-legged sheep and a two-headed goat
Four-tailed dog and a red rat
A horse with no name and a cow with two
Six-toed man with a cockatoo
A woman granting fortunes
A clown giving away balloons
Silly unicycles with goofy riders
Tattooed women with yellow spiders
A loud tall man from Hades
Standing beside bearded ladies
It’s the circus caught north side
Buy your tickets here for a ride
Walk through a house of mirrors
And run from the wild steers
A man blows fire from his teeth
He actually looks like Brian Keith
Eat cotton candy until you’re sick
Then catch the magician’s card trick
There’s no place like this today
You are trapped; there’s no getting away !
The Trying Times of Jean O’Swallen
Well, if that ain’t a heck of a note !
Jean O’Swallen has a goat
Michael lost his plants in the frost
He suffered at a terrible cost !
The traffic light at Main and Walnut
Is now out due to budget cuts
Did you hear about Mrs. Hagar ?
She was at Merlin’s with a cigar
The neighbors are having a party
It’s a retirement party for Marty
Good grief it’s Esther William’s hat
Being carried away by a pack rat !
The phone rings and it’s dear old dad
Wanting to know what kinda day I had
Sorry to cut this short, I must get some rest
These are trying times, I must confess !
