my planets are in gatorade
must be why im not feeling so sane
sugar-coated dreams that pressure my vein
my planets are in marmalade
jarred and hidden in a cabinet
waiting to expire, since i'll forget
my planets are in lemonade
distributed by a child for quarters
as she waits by the streets borders
my planets are in rubber-maid
a collection of moms just trying to have fun
while their daughters sell drinks in the sun
my planets are a smoke-grenade
blinding my sights to sneak up
ten-fold to empty my cup
"how much for a glass of lemonade?"
