Everyone likes to blame Boomers
We did fuck things up real good
But not as bad as things are fucked up now

Read me Dr. Memory

Put me in front of a movie
Give me half a gummy
It will never make linear sense

Give me a cocktail or two
I'll follow that plot right over the bluff
Until I fall asleep

Can't decide which I like best

As historical chickens
Come home to roost
Hysterical chickens demand
We cluck them up good
What once made a bold claim
To be one nation #indivisible
Now is pecking at the premise
Both highly divisible and dissolvable
Scratching open barnyard wounds
That can never heal all time

The color cerulean (American English) or caerulean (British English, Commonwealth English), is a variety of the hue of blue that may range

Just when I thought
I was being precise
Describing my mood
As #cerulean blue
Forgot the factor
That hue refracts
In the ultimate eye
Of beholding beholder
Cerulean or caerulean
Black stripe blue stripe
Gold stripe white
The hue is up to you
