Madness Lit Bright
When the Cheshire Cat smiles on the night
Your smile hangs low tonight
Head lolled to the side
Yellow teeth of madness lit bright
The song was too long
The play a little rough
The knife was found
And danced upon with glee
Three birds shriek overhead
Weaving laughter unhinged
Like us they dance on the edge
A cactus on my head
And underwear on yours
A practical joke with two hot tamales
The dishwasher broke
And the pineapple house let out a scream
We had fun tonight
But now you must sleep
Lay in your bed my cackling moon
Your bright teeth laughed this eve
But it’s time for your rest
So please
For the love of god please!
Close your eyes and fall to the West
