My brother
From
another mother(And another father),
Last of last night
I told my mother's mother
That next of next week
My mother's daughter's son
The one after the one after this one
Wants to visit his father's father
So I told him
He will have to cross the crossroads
Before the forking of the forking paths
That is over the hill
That is over that hill
That is just over that other hill
Understand?
