Ten-fingers toad
Ten-fingers toad we said
on account of he has all his fingers
all of these fingers everywhere
but only one kidney one kidney
and that slap in the middle
slap in the kidney we said
that's what's like him that's what
Ten-fingers toad we said
he calls croak and we all croak
but yesterday what did he go and do?
now there's ice in his back pockets
fingers of ice stroking our cheekbones
two wise monkeys cracking their fingers
while See-no scratches a cheekbone
Ten-fingers toad we said
we hope you know what you're doing
but there was no reason in his eyes
in his eyes there was no reason
flippety-flop on the big blue ball
he called and we answered nothing
nothing and again nothing
