The Tongue is a Beast



We sputter and spark

We blather and bark

We fizzle and foam

We mutter and moan


We rant like  the fool

And think we are cool.

In the end it We don’t know 

What we don’t know will show.


Like a pig that is greased

The tongue is a beast

When it’s power’s released

The tongue is a beast


We cuss and we swear

And really don’t care

We let the barbs fly

In an endless supply


We still bloviate

And verbalize hate

Its really insane

To parlay in vain


Like a pig that is greased

The tongue is a beast

When it’s power’s released

The tongue is a beast

Yeah the tongue is a beast
