				WONDERFUL  YODELNESS
  way
  out to
  Neverland
  don't ever phone
  ear-shock yodel;
  rue all the antiphon;
  forego all of the big hype
  unless you like to sing the blues;
  let it all hang out with siren tones

				tune piano - seek notes
  tones
  unglue,
  negate dirge
  effects and lack
  pathos of refrain
  inducing harsh echo
  and spoil the wake’s temperament
  needed to maintain mourners nature
  over the passing of their loved ones.

				laughter’s sweetness

  allow
  us to use
  gaudy language
  helping to effect
  tight lips into a grin,
  enhancing ones appearance
  rather than frowns that cause wrinkles
  so use lines which make smiling faces

  stick fingers in your ears if your don't like that rapper music; however that won't stop your body from vibrating since the bass is turned up so high that all your pictures fall off the wall

				BOOM!
