lyrics

One spoon leveled down of sugar
Two shakes for the mind
Stirred in ‘til it’s sweet as you are
Baked until you’re kind
Streams of sun came looking for
The darkness round the bend
Hiding in the dust I’m bound for
A taste of bitter end

And here the devil you see
And inside the devil you know

Let stand ‘til you know it’s cool
Season for your taste
Accept exceptions to the rule
That nothing goes to waste
Streams of sun came looking for
The shadows on the wall
Dancing for their supper
Dressed up for the ball

And here’s the devil you see
And inside the devil you know

I wrote a little message
On a tiny page
With a stub of pencil
That’s all the rage

Brian Stevens New Milford, Connecticut

I am an alien that was sent to earth to study humans and report my findings to minister Zolumb on the planet Yat. To fit in with other middle aged men in my area, I took up pretending to make music. Enjoy.
