Watch
One time only for
anything that goes for
everything is but a house
and the rooms are the house
listening to peoples thoughts is easy
hopping for they are easy
and everything is not a purpose
when the day has a bright purpose
happiness is all around the tree
and leave to bolt through a tree
when I shut my big brown door
and all the world closes its door
to write your mind and try to find
a naughty boy is like the find
and everything is quite sublime
for the rules are sublime
