Why not call the sun the moon?
nOr call coffee tea?
nWhy not call a cat a dog
nOr a bird a bee?
Why not call all boys girls?
nCall all Mamas Dad,
nCall all opera rock ’n’ roll,
nCall a lass a lad?
Say there is no climate change.
nThe truth will set you free.
nThe world is flat, so that is that,
nAnd Hazel’s twenty-three.
