One little duck
Off to try his luck
Went to the city
Oh, what a pity
Now he finds himself stuck

…

Two little crows
Sought better tomorrows
Away they flew
Where? Nobody knew
Not even the sparrows

…

Three little mice
So very nice
Thought they could take
On a poisonous snake
But they could only catch flies

…

Four little fishes
Prepared some dishes
Offered it to a shark
Who began to bark
God fulfilled his wishes

…

Five little worms
Playing with their drums
Think it’s a crime
Waiting for the time
Which never really comes

…

Six little creatures
Blessed with pretty features
Grew up very fast
Things would never last
Now they’re all preachers

…

Seven little squirrels
Found a bag of pearls
Inside a pit
And shared it with
The catterpillars

…

Eight little tortoise
Made a lot of noise
Up against knives
Feared for their lives
Never did raise a voice

…

Nine little falcons
Playing with big guns
Thought it’d be fun
To shoot someone
They’re not the only ones

…

Ten little men
Like only they can
Sticks and stones
Blood and bones
A world war fan

I don’t make for a pleasant sight
When it’s dark or if there’s light
If there’s a law
Who is it for?
To set all the wrongs until they’re right
When the outrage has begun
To rectify the damage done
One thing’s for sure
You can’t tell black from white

…

A million nights I must share
Trapped in this layered four walled square
And raise a toast
To your ghost
If I have to survive this scary nightmare
And watch the beauty fade away
A hundred times, everyday
But what hurts the most
You still think life’s so unfair

…

The circumstances are so tight
As I struggle with my plight
Behind this door
There’s a war
And I’m about to lose it outright
No matter how hard I try to run
I can hear the blazing sun
I’ve been burnt once before
And I’ll burn myself again tonight
