lyrics

Weaving the web is like a rhyme
The spider bides her time
Makes sense in the unfolding
Toast, you gotta butter while it's hot
Don’t pop it if it's not
See the heated coils glowing

Odd and even are the same
It’s best not to play the game
‘Til you've hung around awhile
If you don't step on any toes
And wear your snappy clothes
They might give you points for style

Don’t worry that your words
Or your deeds ring true
Shed your skin now and then
Or you’ll stick like glue

Antics that are way beyond the pale
Someday you’ll all wind up in jail
And the sooner than the better
Follow the money to its source
Now you know who sets the course
And you’ll follow to the letter

Leaves around the flower give me pause
Their shape bespeaks a cause
Prefer the bird without the cage
Let’s take a quick dip in the stream
So much older than it seems
Telling jokes about the ice age

Tuning your imperfect self
Gets you ship shape soon
Listen to your imperfect self
Playing out of tune
Show us all the things that you’ve learned
It’s what you love most
Wonder at the mysteries of bees
Honey for your buttered toast
