I watched you walk, And work, And talk And laugh, From behind a thin Piece of glass-- Never knowing, Never guessing That I could only look, Not touch. Isn't it a funny thing To reach out, And to have your hand Slapped away? Silly little girl, You should known better Than to get your hand Caught In the cookie jar. Innocence doesn't work Anymore, So discard that rotten apple Core, It'll do you not one bit Of damned Or sainted good. You've lost the battle child But you're in luck, You may have unwittingly Starting a foolish War. Crusades of God Can take a rest-- Honey that's all been done And overdone, Before. In war and love, All's fair, A smiles nothing more Than pretty ware, But remember to watch well The heart, Vunerable as it-- Sometimes I think That we're all just playing Freeze tag, Or capture the flag, Nothing more than silly games. Oh before I forget, TAG You're it. |
