First they
Dust off the bottom of the sky

At 3 seconds till uncertainty
Then they
Dye the sunset clouds
To make them more

The bum had abandoned
More than half of his rich
Chocolate cake
In the bottom of the shopping cart
The wording on the top of the cake read
"Happy Birthday Doug"
But it also read
"From Doug"
