Coupla

I got a couple of tickets to the big show this week
But I got no one to go with so maybe I’ll sell my seats

I got a couple of doughnuts hidden in the back of the drawer
Mom says with my braces I can’t eat them anymore

I got a couple of kitties but they don’t seem to like me
Except when I’m about to feed them and they come running to my feet

I got a couple of turtles they cost a lot of money
Now when people come over they say that it smells funny

Whatever happens over here
Has to happen over there
The world is a big collection
Of all these perfect pairs

I have a couple of builders hammering next to me
My landlords are building a hallway and driving me crazy

I got a couple of chickens squawking out in the yard
Dad says we need to eat em why is everything so hard

I got a couple of nose hairs I hope that no one sees
Every once in a while one will pop out and tickle me

I got a couple of eyeballs rolling around in my head
I wonder about what happens to them when you’re dead

Whatever happens over here
Has to happen over there
The world is a big collection
Of all these perfect pairs

Two lungs two eyes two ears two feet
But I wish we had two lives
And somehow they could meet
