This Tale

Razor blades in my apple pie
 
Dandelions cover my yard
 
The looser in first place, I am
 
God mailed me a sympathy card
 
Eating the flies on the window
 
Squirting super glue in my shoes
 
Playing hide and seek all alone
 
My can is all bolts and no screws
 
Bricks weigh my life jacket down
 
Noodle necklaces always break
 
I collect "fallout shelter" signs
 
Draino works if my head will ache
 
I was born at the "lost and found"
 
It's fiftyfour carved exes for me
 
Planting all my pennies in the dirt
 
Didn't never grow no money tree
 
Lived, is devil only backwards
 
Santa and fairytales aren't real
 
Paranoia is for your protection
 
She caught me with a potato peel
 
I had a sister and a brother once
 
Wal Mart has UFO's now for sale
 
The leather belts an wooden spoons
 
Please, try to understand this tale
