Automatic Husband

Thanks for asking, yes it's true
We've been waiting for you
We've been waiting for you
Persuade your husband he should stay
At our disposal for today
And take down everything we say
About the new school bus assistant stuck in charge
Of leaving seven sleeping children in their seats in a trance
Induced by air conditioning

So I went back up to our room
And told my husband to sit down on the end table
And that he was getting very sleepy
When his eyes went out I put the pen back in his left hand

At phases 8 and 31 the four faculty's are done, but the principals are some
The solar period, if you look, is like the bishop in the brook
So it says in this book
Writ by the new school bus assistant stuck in charge
Of leaving seven sleeping children in their seats in a trance
Induced by air conditioning

And don't forget the imaginary map
Of the manifestations of
Murder making
Owned by the undertaker's office
Otherwise known as
The cadaver's cosmeticians
Local number dead as a door-nail in a church mouse's chin

Or so said the birth chart I sent away to New Mexico for
It was made by a special commission of Navajo basketball coaches and blonde ladies
