Don't Be Absurd
Sir, don't be absurd!
Unicorns can't jump
Through three triangles,
On the 13th of June,
When its raining inside,
And the doors are painted blue!
Why?
Because apples don't sing in the shower anymore,
The chess pieces are a mess,
The bishop thinks he's a knight,
And the king didn't have his coffee yet,
And.. and.. the roof is gone,
And if you look at the moon,
You'll be like, woah..
So, good day to you!
Sir!
