Hello.

He said hello, I don't know
Why anyone would do that
Going cautiously at his prey, he said hello
"Hello!" he said, what on Earth
Drove him to that? I've cause to wonder
O, finesse is dead and we charge
At the dead targets these days
Cold, the trail is cold
The elk are all cold
The geese are all frozen in their
Lake and the sitting ducks are close behind
Foolish to assume that
Nobody minds

We have watched them come and go
We have watched them go and then
We have watched them despair in hopelessness
In despair at their own foolishness
We have watched them all fall down
As gulls
They swoop
Down on a frozen sea
Bashing their brains out on the ice
A foolish choice indeed
Indeed
Indeed
