make the day go away
tell the world what to do
give me peace comfort and plenty
give me wearable shoes

make the sign of the cross
but let him climb down
make my body the boss
every verb needs a noun

give my thoughts to the wind
give my money away
let me live like a human
one of these days

let me read a good book
with coffee on deck
and take a long break
from heaven and heck

let me live in the moment
and breathe the good air
give me reasons to live
at the top of the stairs

make the world go away
give me something to do
give me life liberty and happiness
I feel like it’s overdue
