Imagination Race

What's going on inside your mind?
Are all mechanics working?
Are pulleys being correctly pulled
To stop unnecessary jerking?

Are the monkeys passing messages
To the elephants in your brain?
Who give them to the rats
Who run down the trunk
To the puppies who've been trained

Are the pups slipping those messages
Down departmental chutes?
Where they're collected by centipedes
Wearing hundreds of tiny boots

Those centipedes run those messages
Throughout your cranium
A never ending process
That makes imagination run

Next time you're caught daydreaming
Staring into space
It's all those critters in your head
Running the Imagination Race
