Two Songs in One Day? Oh me, oh my.
My name is Jonas.
I’m carrying the wheel.
Thanks for all you’ve shown us.
This is how we feel.
Come sit next to me.
Pour yourself some tea.
Just like Grandma made
When we couldn’t find sleep.
Things were better then.
Once but never again.
We’ve all left the den.
Let me tell you ’bout it.
Choo-choo train left
right on time.
A ticket costs
only your mind.
The driver said,
“Hey, man, we go all the way.”
Of course we
were willing to pay.
My name is Wakefield.
Gotta box full of your toys.
They’re fresh
out of batteries.
But they’re still makin’ noise,
makin’ noise.
Tell me what to do.
Now the tank is dry.
Now this wheel is flat.
And you know what else?
Guess what I received,
In the mail today.
Words of deep concern
From my little brother.
The building’s not going
as he planned.
The foreman has
injured his hand.
The dozer will not
clear a path.
The driver swears
he learned his math.
The workers are going home.
The workers are going home
The workers are going home.
My name is Jonas.
