The Animal Inside Me
It rants and raves
O how it craves
It lies and cries
O how it tries
Yet it cannot persuade me
Civility must be upheld
My ruling cannot by it be felled
For days on end I'll battle true
Until we both are black and blue
Yet it cannot win against me
It moans and groans
O how it drones
It picks and ticks
O how it tricks
Yet it cannot persuade me
Civility must remain the same
My belief is that all must be tamed
For years on end we'll toss and tumble
Until our spirits crack and crumble
Yet it cannot win against me
O how it craves
It lies and cries
O how it tries
Yet it cannot persuade me
Civility must be upheld
My ruling cannot by it be felled
For days on end I'll battle true
Until we both are black and blue
Yet it cannot win against me
It moans and groans
O how it drones
It picks and ticks
O how it tricks
Yet it cannot persuade me
Civility must remain the same
My belief is that all must be tamed
For years on end we'll toss and tumble
Until our spirits crack and crumble
Yet it cannot win against me
