The Old Fool

He has so little

and what little he has

disappears fast

or just slips away.

His method’s outdated,

he calls it old school

and there’s really no fool

like a old fool

sitting patiently

for the end of a thing

that never quite arrives

but he’ll still sing

of another glorious

date to behold

and say what he knows

he was only told

by powers greater,

beyond the sky

who’s only real power

is the power to lie

but that’s okay,

just listen to him sing

for in a world of idiots

the fool is king.
