"Spoon!"


I met a boy named emily
who couldn't do math in his head

I fought a fight named empathy
while he figured out my check

No spoon for tea
some sugar please
oh and you forgot
the cream

Coffee and tea for three
JB and Jesus and me
and our wandering friend
named John

I sometimes think of steak and shake
and how I'd like to learn more

About proper service at a diner
and the etiquette of campers

Coffee tea or me
I can plainly see
your wisdom JB
in ordering the soup
