Nine Cats |
The butterfly sailed on the breeze |
Past a field of barbed wire trees |
Where golden dragons chased around |
Pampered poppies on the ground |
Two silver trout sat way on high |
And watched a royal samurai |
Plant two black orchids in a box |
And strap it to a laughing fox |
A minstrel bought a crooked spoon |
He gave it to a blue baboon |
Who filled it full of virgin snow |
And wandered in the afterglow |
A toad stood in his ballet shoes |
Teaching sixteen kangaroos |
How to skip across a lake |
They found it hard to stay awake |
A pharaoh played a merry tune |
And watched nine cats dance on the moon |
I didn’t know what all this meant |
I didn’t know why I’d been sent |
