Oh! Are you real?  
With such sagacity  
To enlighten pent up hearts  
Oh yeah -- Thou art.  
Your voice reverberates  
Against the walls  
And hurls bones from graves  
At living vegetarians.  
Oh are you real?  
With such officious air  
Good natured pride  
You seat yourself, prime minister  
Before the throne  
O thou art real!
