Lost in her charming gaze
I'd stay here every and each day
Squinting from the Sun's rays
Something inside her was astray
Then one day it was disclosed
Her optometrist diagnosed
She has, astigmatism in each of her eyes
It boogers up her sight
With astigmatism in each of her eyes
She shouldn't drive at night
Born with eyeballs egg-shaped
A trait passed down via DNA
And as her sight decays
She'll need glasses of bulletproof gauge
I just can't see how she copes
With corneas like kaleidoscopes
She has, astigmatism in each of her eyes
I think she sees in fives
With astigmatism in each of her eyes
Her stare still feels like knives
With astigmatism in each of her eyes
Her world is undefined
With astigmatism in each of her eyes
She might as well be blind
With astigmatism in each of her eyes
She can't see traffic signs
With astigmatism in each of her eyes
It hides my facial lines

Those Pesky Hypnic Jerks

Just as I start to nod and rest my weary head
I endure something odd that fills me full of dread
Nerves give an awful quake
Jolting me fast awake
I'll never get to sleep well again
Just as I start to drool and snore while counting sheep
A happening so cruel I swore I thought I'd weep
My pulse began to race
Kicked the dog in the face
I'll never get to sleep well again
Nothing ever seems to work
If I don't find relief, I'll go berserk
Curse these pesky hypnic jerks
Just as I start to nod and rest my weary head
I endure something odd that fills me full of dread
Quick sudden shock of pain
Once relaxed, now insane
I'll never get to sleep well again

My neighbor's nosey dog would bark and dig each day
Until I heard its cries and stumbled on freshly stripped remains
I've known about this for some time I'm afraid to say
I'm tasked with keeping it fed lest it comes searching for its prey
What's lurking underneath the shed?
Inhaling every neighbor as its choice protein
I must admit this newfound solace and silence is serene
Know not even my own safety is guaranteed
Its only a matter of time until it bites the hand that feeds
What's lurking underneath the shed?

It took so long just to work up the courage to even say hi
Can't help but break a sweat from the mere thought that I might dissatisfy
She asked me if I would like leftover shrimp, I would, I'd lie
I hate those smelly pink sea roaches but I'm too scared to deny
What A long list of things I would do, yea
Things that I'm not above
All in attempt to prove I'm not rude, yea
Seems it's never enough
At least a week's serving size of mustard was duly applied
And still a myriad of bits and pieces in my teeth reside
Just learned some bad news much to my chagrin
Those shrimp I ate were laced with botulin
I'll never eat 'em again, never eat 'em again
Words can't describe the awful pain I'm in
Feels like I'm being liquified from deep within
I'll never eat 'em again, never eat 'em again
What A long list of things I would do, yea
Things that I'm not above
All in attempt to prove I'm not rude, yea
Seems it's never enough
Just learned some bad news much to my chagrin
Those shrimp I ate were laced with botulin
I'll never eat 'em again, never eat 'em again
Words can't describe the awful pain I'm in
Feels like I'm being liquified from deep within
I'll never eat 'em again, never eat 'em again
What A long list of things I would do, yea
Things that I'm not above
All in attempt to prove I'm not rude, yea
Seems it's never enough
What a long list why I hate seafood, yea
Which I'm now throwing up
Laying towels on the mess I've spewed, yea
Seems there's never enough
