Consciousness for Peptides
What will they think of next, those clever clever men
A thistle with a motor? Wheels upon a hen?
Every new research report gives hint of wonders rare
Pie upon an earring, wings upon a prayer
Pigs within a blanket, oysters on the moon
What will you think of next, O boffin, O buffoon?
What will they think of next, those scientific types
Accordians with a conscience? Reflective sewer-pipes?
And other useful novelties that spring from who knows where
Pie upon an earring, wings upon a prayer
Figs within a kumquat, East and Western Poles
What will you think of next, you prophets, O you proles?
