Theodora (Theo) Onken - (((Covering Up Your Tracks)))

Your footprints-oh they match! br All the tell-tale signs are very clear- br ALL the dirt has been dug up-- br And the proof is in the pudding-i hear; br br Coming from the oceans of yesterday-- br And the Steamship S.S. Bernardo of before-- br Mary-she had a little Lamb... br Who wanted-oh so much more; br br S.S. plotted and planned voraciously- br With his German doc pal who excelled in dirt- br Doc and S.S.-oh how they worked it... br Spreading all the doom and gloom of hurt; br br Emily the Proud Big Bird was their target- br As was her father-most dear- br They were part of a Brass Ring Merry-Go-Round... br '1978' was never quite so clear; br br Predictions-oh they were coming-- br About Emilys move down south... br And Betty announced a published warning-- br 'Come Spring-Emilys returning'-bellowed out of her mouth; br br Warning S.S. and the Aussie Doc...! br They'd better get their umbrellas out-- br Cuz Emily the Big Proud Bird was returnin'... br It was more a yell than a shout; br br Now you see i was Emily the Big Bird with the Golden Tail- br And i did return as predicted in the Spring of 1979- br Cuz my father had a heart attack and died...! br Tell you their prediction was a crime! ! ! : br br Today, i leave all things Greek alone... br As i know where greed and evil truly dwell-- br Upon a distant hill they are touching softly? br Just one step away from Hell! ! ! ; br br Dedicated to my beloved father br Died: May 7,1979 br With hope and prayers that this br kind of thing never happens to br Another human being.
