a conversation at my kitchen table with a poor little existential sugar cube.
lyrics
Shugar-Shug
Dearest Sugar cube,
last on in the bowl.
What is this life dear?
And why,
must we go?
Where are your brothers?
Where are your brothers,
have they gone
to tea?
Where are your brothers?
Where are your brothers;
I thought them all
so sweet.
And oh how you've changed,
from the sugar cane.
From the forgotten planes
the places we've drained
of
Florida.
Such a shame
And when you sleep
what do you dream?
Are your nightmares
coffee and cream?
Is it death dear,
was there much pain?
When the tiny
black ants
came to
take u
grain
by
grain?
And back to the tunnels again.
Dearest Sugar cube,
last one in the bowl.
What is this life dear?
And why
must we go?
Where are your brothers?
Oh, where are your brothers,
have they gone,
to tea?
Where are your brothers?
Oh, where are your brothers;
I
thought
them
all,
