The Madman has a say

more of a song than a poem, so like try to make a tune in your head as you read it. whatever kind suits you :)

They say there's a man

who one day had snapped

when he saw a squirrel fly like a bird

They say he stood by

the tree it left behind

leaving too soon to see it return

They say he's a mad man

and that he is

to his family and clothes he left behind,

he ventures the land

with a stick in his hand

and tears into any foe he can find

They say he's a mad man

as he slips past them

and climbs every structure in his way

he's chased by the police

but he treats them like any beast

and battles them from night til day

He swings from vine to vine and

sings from time to time on

construction, rock and tree

They say he's a mad man

They know he's a mad man

But they also know that he's free

and he sings his song of the free:

"O-ay, O-ay, O-ay the beast I must slay

He breaks my song, but I fight on

and there I have a say."

"O-ay, O-ay, O-ay the beast I must slay

He breaks my song, but I fight on

and there I have a say."

The mad man has a say.
