The Anti-Vermin Seed
Buzz Osborne
If I could get the nerve and move
I'd put them all to sleep
That would not be wrong
For either you
Or what it is we see
Somewhere there's a king
Who keeps his days for forgiving
Everyone
If I could hold one thing
An anti-vermin seed
That I won't ever need
Only for real
Will we all pretend
It's over now?
Over my hand
I remember doll
And what'd it do to them
And when you search your soul
You had better damn well tell green from gold
And when I look for home
If it's in my head
I'd say it's a bargain
