GOTCHA !

"Tingly skies full of surprise oh how I love when with surmise, 
        the little rascal aims his dart as if it were, poetic art !” 

Stupid, stupid Cupid 
Lost His bow and arrow 
Put it down when He found a flute 
Why it magically just appeared right here beside him  
when He had touched downed upon the ground 
It twas sneaky Pan who grabbed them with his parachute 
The very one that he didn’t have to shoot 
He didn’t give a hoot, a “fair trade” don’tcha think?
He thot as if too He didn't give a poop
For old school

Ohhhhh, stupid, stupid Cupid 
Lost His bow and arrow 
And Pan, my friend 
was notta quite as good a shot as Him 
He spun the world upside down 
shooting everyone he saw on sight 
Girl on girl, boys on boys 
He even shot friendly animals as lover toys 
Our frivolous puck didn’t give a darn 
Especially when inside the barn 
He shot arrows everywhere at everyone 
He just didn’t seem to care. He was having fun. 
Shooting arrows at everyone, everywhere 
Poetic justice poking here and there 
Transforming words and twisting them with fear 
I swear I saw Pan smiling while shedding a few tears 

Oh, stupid, stupid Cupid 
Lost His bow and arrow 
But apparently, He could also play this flute 
Perhaps, not the same way as Pan 
For when Cupid played every man, woman and child
Would fall under a stupid love spell 
All across the lands the music fell 
Only making Pan fill up  
with more belly laughter ... GOTCHA ! 

When pan’s pipes play for you, there isn’t much that you can do ! 
       When cupid’s arrow aims for you, there isn’t much that you can do !
