Moon Madness!

Why not drink from the cup of madness 

Even though you are not quite sane, 

It's the right thing to do for the want

Of this crazy parade we enslave!

When will we grapple the cause of this claim

Were stable is left out in the cold unknown

Fending off every pretender who calls

The rightful to surrender then pause 

Deep down in the depths of this Pilgrim city 

Where sadness has won the prize of fate

To tangle the paws of daft willy-nilly's

Who scratch and rip with their claws 

The Wolf-man has moments of worry

When he recites the news to the crowd

Everyone flips in a hurrying rush 

To help feed the madness so proud  

This is the place of the final escape 

That seeks out the maddening thinkers

Who blink in whispers that all can hear

Because this town is crippled and loud 

Howl to the Moon and play the tune

For now is the time to wave the flags

As the countdown goes up on the screen

For everyone there to feel and believe 

They think that they know what is going on

But feeble minds are getting reset

With pictures of brighter futures to tow

And memories to easily forget

So drink from that cup of madness

When hope for nothing at all decays

Bring out the flaming brigade with applause

So every brave Pilgrim there can be saved
