“Tongue Tied; Mouth Twisted”

I’m just sitting on the corner
When you came to bother.
“What do you want?” I asked.
Then you blurted out words so fast.

For no reason you became angry.
Honestly, your tone’s so zany.
I’m laughing my head off.
I ought to lock you in a loft.

People these days are crazy.
Their thoughts and ideas going hazy.
The whole crowd’s staring at you.
My, my, whatcha going to do?

I didn’t get the chance to speak.
There’s no way I can even compete.
I can only be nonchalant
As I listen to words so flamboyant.

That’s IT! I’ve had enough!
Why, you snotty little fluff!
I’ll stuff you into a cotton ball
To see how you’d roll!
