Bobby Walser

from Humptamatic by Humpty Dumpty

lyrics

Hey Bob
Tons of blue
Like two beggars
with a feather
which run through
all their nights
to be right
till some Colosseum
but if weather
does look clement
makes no fear

You and I spin around
don't see any bound or knob
Can one be such good and gone
Can we stay 'till the day's done
Chased but never found
As nobody hears our sound

A cold grey
Yesterday
Did I ever
Tell you
We're no more than preys?
There ain't light
In the fight
Of others' pride
There ain't light
in the woods
Of someone's cold delights

So we spin around
To reach some ground
We're slobs
Can one be such warm and lost
Can some soul tell me where's a phone
To call my homeground
As the world here makes no sound

We measure yards
of best regards
Even in shards
Under guards' sight
And it's so coarse
and surely it
will get even worse
if we just give up walking
but now I feel a bit tired
I hope you don't mind
if I lay myself on the mound
