Fresh Roasted Peanuts

You know the park and how the scene will go.
You know the girl and boy, you know them all.
You know, by now, the boy should really know
the girl will always snatch away the ball.

You know the house behind the house of brown
You know the baron shot it from behind.
You know the pilot well who rides it down
but even so, you never seem to mind..

While tickling the ivory one night
the quiet boy who wants to be the star
saw that he'd never lead the troupe despite
his talents which, by rights, should take him far.

And maybe now you understand just why
he changed his tune and made the beagle cry.
