2X2
|
|
One by one, they followed the sun,
|
One by one, until there were none.
|
Two by two, to their lovers they flew,
|
Two by two, into the foggy dew.
|
Three by three, they danced on the sea,
|
Four by four, they danced on the shore,
|
Five by five, they tried to survive,
|
Six by six, they were playing with tricks.
|
|
How many paths did they try and fail?
|
How many of their brothers and sisters lingered in jail?
|
How much poison did they inhale?
|
How many black cats crossed their trail?
|
|
Seven by seven, they headed for heaven,
|
Eight by eight, they got to the gate,
|
Nine by nine, they drank the wine,
|
Ten by ten, they drank again.
|
|
How many tomorrow's have are they given away?
|
How many compared to yesterday?
|
How many more without any reward?
|
How many more can they afford?
|
|
Two by two, they stepped into the ark,
|
Two by two, they step in the dark.
|
Three by three, they're turning the key,
|
Four by four, they turn it some more,
|
|
One by one, they follow the sun,
|
Two by two, to another rendezvous.
