Future History

A'ight,you want more and more, I know all too well what you're here for, For you, woman, I can spare the change, it really ain't no chore. If ya gotta ask what I mean, why I said this 'n that for Just go borrow my Webster's 'n look somethin' up like "implore". Knockin' it down hard, yer perception, that out-of-order door, I'm sinkin' three-pointers from every place on the polished floor, Escapin' the sand-trap, I'm cryin' out that fantastic "Fore!" You'll find me everywhere because I read a lot more than Thor, I'm serious about takin' oaths like the Green Lantern Corps, Not some Iago'd Moore, they mean ev'rythin' those rings we wore. Tempest to Titus, Titus to Tempest: hottest tea to pour, Magic slashin' but none of that sick'nin' grotesque, ghostly gore, I'm shakin' my spear, draggin' my pen, makin' more of old lore. Future history's no mystery to me, I write the score, I'm the Lion, once and future king, ya know me by my roar. Everything's everything, with it all we'll make so much more, Singin' "Fly me to the moon...", hurricaned universe t'explore, I know you want more of me 'n that is what I am here for.
