betty johnson lived on a hill
with a dog named adam and a snake named bill
she went to work every day at the mill
and left a pie on her windowsill
a bum named custer happened by
and spotted betty’s cooling pie
a single teardrop filled his eye
and a bird fell from the sky
and then he saw a cloud
and a voice from it said out loud
there is nothing left to fall
have a nice day, y’all
the voice brought back memories
and made custer weak in the knees
he looked at the sky and passed up the pie
though he could not really say why
custer felt a feeling strange
as he walked along the whispering range
the world was changing
someone was rearranging
the atoms in the universe
it would not be the first
time it had happened to him
but his memories were dim
he trudged along, bereft
only one memory was left
he had a cat named larry snd a dog named joe
it was a long tome ago
they decided to rob the mail
and away to easter island sail
with the jewels in a coffee can
yes, that had been the plan
but king john had got there first
king john, he was the worst
the desert was filled with bones
why would they not leave him alone?
