Questions to make me ponder ABAB
How did the dinosaurs get here?
Who invented the first campfire?
Put the alphabet in sequence?
Who got stuck first in a quagmire?

How do cacti live in deserts?
How many scales play in thunder?
Electricity lives in rain?
I'm stupefied, makes me wonder...

How we survived our youth back then?
Knowledge learned from every blunder.
Junk we come up with now for kids.
How they'll turn out, makes me wonder...

How does disease know where to strike?
How do thieves know where to plunder?
When did poison take its first life?
How we keep going, makes me wonder...
