They watered down the poison in this town
They raised us wrong
They raised us strong
They raised us up with arms 10 feet long

I'm afraid we're Hansel-ed,
I'm afraid we're Cancel and Grettel-ed
I'm afraid we don't have the mettel 
to make it in these woods.
The Empire State 
made out of ginger cake
came crumbling down 
before we had a taste.

Summer settles,
Fall faints,
Spring spreads,
Winter waits,
dusk consents,
and dawn redecorates.
