Текст песне : Tally Hall. Haiku.

One, two, three, four

I have been trying to write
A haiku for you
Some things I just can't do

Maybe you're big on ancient
Asian poetry
Or maybe it's just me

I have trying to get
This haiku just right
All night for you alright

I'm through!

Maybe this poem was lost
In the sauce we spilled
That never got refilled

I've never thought much
of formulaic verse anyway
End rhymes are not my fort-

I have been trying to get
This haiku just right
All night for you alright

I'm through!

I'm trying not to try to hard
But you're hard to write down right
So I pen these trite attempts
At haikus for you tonight

hee hee ha ha ha ha ha ha

La da dee diddum
La da daddum doo
Diddle dum doo la deedle

There! That's sufficient.
I wrote a haiku for you
Well I tried at least
And that's not so bad
I'm working here
Can that be said for you?

I'm trying not to try too hard
But you're hard to write down right
So I pen these trite attempts
At haikus for you tonight

Words don't work like Webster says
They trip me up all night
I'm just trying to write for you
But you're hard to write down right
