You eat and eat and eat
You start to get fat
You sleep and sleep and sleep
Do you really want that?

You can change the world
One by one
When all come together
And work like the sun

You like someone
but don't know how to say
by keeping it locked up
You push them away

You can't find a way
but don't give up
cause at the end
There's a magical cup

Some people eat and eat and eat
They start to get fat
They sleep and sleep and sleep
you don't really want that.

I wrote this on September 2nd, of 2009 for a warm-up in Language Arts. I wrote of the top of my head so, I guess it really don't have a special meaning.
