Ballad

Silk worm eats mildew leaves

French fries silk worm don't eat

To grow older  Tear off chrysalis

It's the second day of becoming

Everything is so tiring

Yet we still tries to instil

Insipid transience doublespeaker

To hell with the smokeshow

Let us practice swordplay and eat steel

Let us sit a little and wait for the rain

To rain on us down the hill by the riverside

Where everything was fine again

Silk worm eats Sunday leaves

Unsunned loaves silk worm don't eat

To sleep tighter  To tighten sleep

It's the second day of showing

Preparing for the violin

Yet we still attempts  to tempt

Vodka orange juice screwdriver

To live with the unlived

Let us use somebody and embody

Let us drift a little and wait for the rain

To rain on us down by the shore by the riverside

Where everything pictured so fine grained
