The man from Kellogg

There Once was a man from kellogg
Who had a pet frog
that thought it was a cat
so it eat a rat
Now the frog is fat as a log

A Painfull Smile

Behind my smile is pain
that runs deep into my soul
filling in the cracks of joy with
hate leaving no room for hope

the pain you can not see
soon you will not smile either
as I swim into the sea of loneliness
allowing sadness to fill my lungs

I snatch my smile from your memory
as my body sinks I will live a lie no longer
never forcing a smile, that if you would see through it
I wouldn't be moving in with the fish and saying goodbye forever

Use a dog not a frog

Use a dog not a frog
A big devil dog and you’ll be set
He’ll hold you tight and whisper sweet nothings into your ear

He’ll leave you smiling and wanting more
He’ll kiss you gentle and make his world
He’ll be the only person you will ever need

But don’t think for a moment he’s prince charming
No but he is knight one that will fight for you and everybody else
He’ll serve his country but he will return to you

But why he’s away he’ll keep your picture close to him
And write to you every moment he gets
You will be his reason for missing home

And the reason he will return
So use a dog not a frog
And you will receive your happily ever after
