A Stupid Idea

 

 

I’m adrift on a raft

That someone else made

A little bit scorched

Because of no shade

Schools full of fish

That don’t seem to think

And plenty of water

That I dare not drink

So just where I am

I can’t seem to tell

But getting more queasy

With each little swell

Adrift on a raft

With no land in sight

No stars to guide me

It’s been cloudy all night

With no GPS or radio wave

No one out searching

I doubt I’ll be saved

Nobody looking

For little ole’ me

What a stupid idea

To head out to sea.
