About as stupid as politics. I need a shrink visit.

SUN DIAL TROUBLE


Hey , Why’s that paper plate out here?
I’m building you a sun dial dear,

I’m just testing for location,
I have to capture, all the sun’s rotation,

Your pretty mix of roses , are really great as such,
But a handsome ancient sun dial, will give them an added touch,

You can trust me dear, with them you’ll become obsessed,
I’ve picked up some you’ll love, and be gratefully impressed,

I got two old Sears and Roebuck’s, got’em as a pair,
I’ve set the cement feet in , over here and over there,

Kinda balance out the roses, you’ll love them where they are,
You say you’d love it better, if I left’em in the car,

I agree I’ll paint em’some, they don’t look worth a darn,
No, and there’s no room for them out behind the barn,

Hon these are ancient history , from the birth of man,
The earliest form of telling time in every foreign land,

Yes dear I fully understand if I mess up your flower Garden,
I’m gonna need hospital money and the governor’s pardon,

Dear now look at that, ain’t your garden a gorgeous setting ,
Every man in town, will be wanting one, I’m betting,

Yes now I’ll agree, that’s one mistake I made,
The one set in over here, is kinda in the shade,

But Honey, it’s only in the morning like you say,
And you don’t need to be seeing ,all the time all day,

I’m surprised that you don’t like’em Hon,
Saying, They’re an eyesore , cain’t we get by with one,

And why do we need two, even one’s an ugly crime
Hon, you need one, that’s set for standard and one for Daylight savings time! Dum,Ta, Dum,DUM
