Snafu
Lullaby to a goodnight
No more fuss and fight
Out went the light
So dull once so bright
Ending of a sweet dream
Rebuilder of self-esteem
The sun shines as a beam
Now the changing of the regime
The piper carried the final tune
Up went the balloon
No one left to spoon
I wont be coming home soon
The caterpillar imaged from the cocoon
I was busy drawing a cartoon
The rain came down as a monsoon
From heartache I thought I was immune
From September until June
I was such a buffoon
My life now a lampoon
Bark I now at the moon
From dawn till noon
Sadden whale to harpoon
Paid my last doubloon
Lost soldier without a platoon
Miserable journey to commune
The cowboy stands at the saloon
Calmer seas now turn a typhoon
Capsized the old man’s pontoon
Now he has a new favor
Has he now the four-leaf clover
Sweet and gentle this savior
Brought back from the brinks of failure
The dawning brings a morning new
A cold wind no longer blew
Out of the ashes a fresh love grew
What he had was just a crazy snafu
