Tenuousness |
| Tenuous at best was all he had to say |
| When pressed about the rest of it, the world that is |
| From proto-Sanskrit Minoans to Porto-centric Lisboans |
| Greek Cypriots and harbor sorts who hang around in ports a lot uh huh |
| Here’s where things start getting weird |
| While chinless men will scratch their beards |
| And to their minds a sharpened axe |
| Is brushed upon the Uralic syntaxes |
| Love of hate acts as an axis |
| Love of hate acts as an axis |
| First it wanes and then it waxes |
| So procreate and pay your taxes |
| Tenuousness, less seven comes to three |
| Them, you, us plus eleven |
| Thank the heavens for their elasticity |
| And as for those who live and die for astronomy |
| When coprophagia was writ |
| Know when to stand or when to sit |
| Can’t stand to stand, can’t stand to sit |
| And who would want to know this? |
| Click, click, click |
| Who wants to look upon this? |
| Who wants to look upon this pray tell? |
| Who wants to look upon this? |
| Who wants to look upon this pray tell, pray tell? |
| Tenuousness, less seven comes to three |
| Them, you, us plus eleven comes just shy of infinity |
| And as for those who live and die from numerology |
