If You’re Crowish
If you’re crowish and you know it
give a caw
Caaaw
If you’re weighted and you bear it
send a moo
Moooo
If you’re owl and you dreamed it,
give a hoo
Hoooo
If you’re thirsty and you mean it
breathe an ahhh
Ahhhh
You are putty in my hands
said the wind
to the stone
said the dawn
to the bloom
said the dark
to the moon.
