(It's my duty to inform you
That Honey Bunches of Oats is the greatest cereal ever created by man... Mankind

Smart start is a similar cereal
Not as many clusters
Gotta have the clusters)

Into dust we go
Dirt, gum, hair, and snow
Into dust we go
Hair, gum, dirt, and snow

Quixote comma Don
Dime by the squatters dogs
Caught by the shaman's O well in
Bombin' the common grog
Over flood a levy hope it soaks the berry roots
Reanimate the council of the topiary wolves
Move em out, raw hides
Stood his ground like a two headed hound with God's eyes
The botiny's alive, and rotten meat
I'm Ace I foot the fertilizer bombs
Like water until they morning of the skillful IP farms
The chealthiest canary in the mind's overdoses
With a cane it's Luke to skeletosis smells like guns and roses
Honestly the barking biter reek fully shit
Heed to recede to be eager to tip or be meet with a spit
Are you the singing bush? (Yep) Spring the quid and minor keys
Ain't nothin a mechanic on the linus to the virus reigns tiger
Look, bring your bangers to brawl
And bring your bangers and mash home for all, it's raw

Into dust we go (still chewing gum)
Hair, gum, dirt, and snow
Into dust we go
Hair, Gum, dirt, and snow

Coyote comma Wile E.
Fighters never stand still
Chase birds, dodge pianos and falling anvils
Jaws snorting now and laters, apple, cherry, grape
With green grass roots to float the topiary apes
Any weather, the Macy's november with few tethers
We spotlight to the city like a Bambi eye collector
Power Pill Fist, Donkey Kong, chess, check the gesture
Pinecone avalanche hit the decker
Twenty wolves up, one down, what a town
Squirrels in the chimney too stubborn for puffin out
I'm on a record (Yep) can't say I blame the little bastards
Cause tonight's I'm gonna allow pass to the practice for the pacifist
Four children pad gather bloody flowers
To sprinkle on the human analog cadavers after
With no gorilla sign language break through for the moment
Just a pit bull on harry for the clothes that no one owes you, bitch

Into dust we go
Dirt, gum, hair, and snow
Into dust we go (the fuck am I on?)
Hair, gum, dirt, and snow

Kenobi comma Ben
Mingled the common men
He had the fangs of Gengis Kahn, he had the heart of Gunga Den
Tobacco in the bleachers bright confetti everywhere (Weeee!)
To celebrate the influx of the topiary bears
And when they infiltrate the picnics with they limbs inside the honeycombs
They grub up to the oyster club for shadows of your sunny home
Nobody knows your troubles, your woes are holy rolling
Cause jungles wont discriminate when grossly ever growing
Every blow and every trolling butter bowing
Every soldier, every lawnmower, motorboats with bends insider their starter
We stock up on the 99 octane and DDT
Like seymour's little shop in a moment that made me think
God damn, garden clubs are parkered up to share spare parts
It sucks for John Deere's and armored trucks
Hard enough's for what you put the panic buttons for
This is not your parent's bio-organic war!
No
No, no, no

    Yeah, I didnt even think of that. Also in the second verse the character from Looney Tunes is spelled Wile E. Coyote. Still not sure of who Ben Canobi is, but that's what it sounds like.

    Ohh. "Obi-Wan first appeared in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, seemingly a mysterious hermit known as Ben Kenobi." That's from Wikipedia.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.

Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
