Made w. 100% Impact Concentrate
By Steven Minchin

every time you open your mouth
your tongue is pressed in bumper stickers
and sometimes when conversation
stills the air
I think you're going 
to look at me and say

"A day without fairies
is like a day without Sunshine"

"God is my Copilot" or some other
hallow echo of resounding sentiment
overcooked to impact concentrate
then served diluted at full strength
