Should I vanish into a monkey’s bed?
Even though so many are from Vermont,
Tough days do come oh very soon they said,
And monkeys will have all the shoes they want.

Why do people always say “What’s up dude?”
When people have lovely names from their mom,
Why do you have to be so dumb and rude,
Do monkeys have brains? Because they’re the bomb.

Did you see that it was wicked cool,
Monkeys are falling from the blue sky,
Shall there be peace and love I don’t think fool,
Because they found out that monkeys don’t fly.

What is this sonnet that people speak of,
I will not let that madness go so above.

&quot;Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.&quot; -Lord Alfred Tennyson
