Gummy Bear Delight - A1

Verse 1

I took a gummy bear,
And into the night I flew.
The moon was wearing sunglasses,
And the stars all said, “How do you do?”

God was indicted at the Table of Babel,
Charged with a million counts.
The jury was twelve confused philosophers,
Still arguing body counts.

Pre-Chorus

Lynn said, “You’re insane.”
I smiled, “Maybe that’s holistically true.”
But who’s completely rational
On a gummy bear flight with no runway view?

Chorus

We’re all just passengers
On my gummy bear train.
So sit back and watch me
Paint constellations on a window streaked with rain.

Some voices in my head call what I do wisdom,
Some call it delight.
Some call it madness…
Lynn says, “You’re insane.”
I just call it a Tuesday night.
All thanks to a Gummy Bear delight.

Verse 2

I questioned Heaven, God, and angels,
Pulled the halos from their shine.
The angels hired defense attorneys,
While Truth stood waiting in line.

I pondered and pontificated
Faster than logic could brew.
Every answer birthed three more questions,
Every “me” became “you.”

Bridge

I carved pie hieroglyphics
Across a perfect key lime pie.
The whipped cream translated everything
No professor could decipher why.

John denied he’d eaten pie,
Though the evidence was a key lime-smeared smile.
Along with sledgehammered crumbs and shattered crust
They scattered for a country mile.

Paul saluted the Milky Way.
John yelled, “I need no alibi!”
Lynn just sighed, “You all are insane…”
Chris melted into bed nearby.

Like butter on a summer biscuit,
The universe slowly slipped from sight…
As “goodnight” rained down in whispers,
Ending one impossible flight.

Final Chorus

We’re all just passengers
On my gummy bear train,
Searching for forever
Inside a sugar cane brain.

Tomorrow I’ll wake up laughing,
Or maybe feeling contrite.
But for one ridiculous evening…
I had a first-class gummy bear flight.
