What I知 Thankful For
Bagpipes at funerals
And cut rate hotels
Wardrobe malfunctions
And the Liberty Bell
Infants in baskets
Crying at the front door
These are the things
That I知 thankful for
Fried shrimp and scallops
And snow days in June
Cocaine till sun up
And sleeping till noon
Moderate nudity
And porn that痴 softcore
These are the things
That I知 thankful for
First dates and farewells
And breakfast in bed
A glass of champagne
That goes straight to your head
Erotic positions
You ain稚 tried before
These are the things
That I知 thankful for
Poets who dislike
What might seem uncouth
In their fearless pursuit
Of a sanitized truth
Hallmark card humans
That cannot ignore
All of these things
That I知 thankful for
And cut rate hotels
Wardrobe malfunctions
And the Liberty Bell
Infants in baskets
Crying at the front door
These are the things
That I知 thankful for
Fried shrimp and scallops
And snow days in June
Cocaine till sun up
And sleeping till noon
Moderate nudity
And porn that痴 softcore
These are the things
That I知 thankful for
First dates and farewells
And breakfast in bed
A glass of champagne
That goes straight to your head
Erotic positions
You ain稚 tried before
These are the things
That I知 thankful for
Poets who dislike
What might seem uncouth
In their fearless pursuit
Of a sanitized truth
Hallmark card humans
That cannot ignore
All of these things
That I知 thankful for
