a bone

come on universe
throw me a bone
I'm tired of scrounging around in the trash
i've begged and pleaded
I've even prayed
I've lit the candles and chanted the chants

I've done it all
but it doesn't seem to help
come on universe
come on

what should i say
what should i do
what magic tricks will see me through
I've conjured
I've pondered
I've threatened the spirits

I've done it all
but it nothing helps
come on universe
come on
