These Are the Things

"These Are the Things"
(1999 by dB)

Jewish bagel
With cream cheese and lox
If this food ain’t kosher
We’re gonna throw rocks
At the baker
Meet his Old Testament maker.

bridge:) I know it must seem kinda weird
To grow up and not trim the edge of your beard.

chorus:) These are the things that make life
worth living.

Asian culture
Martial arts
A guy like Bruce Lee
With a case of the farts
And it smells
Like a toilet in hell.

bridge:) But it’s nothing you want to laugh about
’Cause this guy could rip your beating heart out.

chorus:) These are the things that make life
worth living.

Italian sausage
With peppers or none
It’s not quite right
Without a bun, hon
And some ketchup
Maybe a little mustard.

bridge:) I may be an immigrant, but this is true
If it wasn’t for pizza, I wouldn’t like you.

chorus:) These are the things that make life
worth living.

German Nazis
With skin on their head
I’d be more proud
With a neck that was red
And a pickup
With a dog in the back.

bridge:) I may be irreverent, but this much is
clear
You look like angry, combat boot-wearing queers.

chorus:) These are the things that make life
worth living.

Honky hookup
American handyman
You wouldn’t have to fix it
If it was made in Japan
Instead of here
By guys who drink too much beer.

bridge:) But if you dare ask them just what’s
what
They’ll show off a gut or the crack of their
butt.

chorus:) These are the things that make life
worth living (repeat) ...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
