Rabbit

 

Incomplete, it’s incomplete

My list is incomplete

Oh my god, I am undone

My list is incomplete                                                              

Children, children time we’ve none                           

We will not stop until we’re done                                         

We must now work, we can’t have fun                                 

My list is incomplete                                                  

Beggar, vagrant step aside

You shall not interrupt my stride

Get away -have you no pride?

My list is incomplete

God made no nature as divine

As this almighty list of mine

I will not stop and there recline

My list is incomplete

Now Peter at the pearly gates                                    

Stands there and patiently awaits                              

A man who rushes to his fate                                    

Whose life was incomplete.
