SET THE MARKS Just a little bit over the mark Just a little bit in time Whole pillar of people all frozen in slime And you know all they need is some comfort You know all they need is a hand to guide Of course we’re all listening so intent now It makes the world go round
We all got out around summertime again Julie says to me “I’ll give you three points for style One for the other, two for the same, five for remainder Six if your with me and as Androcles said Don’t you ever offend her”
And back in school we jumped the gates and moved on again Teacher bid us begone with banners grey and pale If only he knew the problem He’d probably go grow roses instead What with his beard and his anthems We’d be better off red instead
Just for a joke for a bit of a poke we lit up the moon Showered silver fishes on New York City from a paper spoon Man-Trout says “Can anyone here remember what we are doing here?” Set out the marks tell the winner she’s won, speed on Tuesday Will he won’t he December?
