Doing That Scrapyard Thing

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
When I was young they gave me a mongrel pianoSpent all my time inventing the cup of teaWriting your name in the seaBanging my favorite headMissing the last bed, waving the cheery herringBalancing brass bands on the tip of my toePhoning your home from a treeDrinking my favorite lochWhen I was old they gave me a model factoryI met three salads out on the motorwayLeaving your name at the doorBreaking my favorite eggMissing the walrus, sharing my last bananaBalancing zeppelins on the end of my noseCalling your name in the zooBlowing my favorite mind
