What Does it All Mean? for writers Cramp
Sam Adams was an amateur linguist,,
Fascinated by the various strange sayings,
He encountered almost daily
He did not know what anything meant

What did the phrase
Butterflies are dead relatives saying hi”
mean?
Was it a metaphor for reincarnation?

Thinking about that he became confused
{b }As confused as a goat on AstroTurf.
And what did that mean exactly?

Finally, he contemplated
The deep profound meaning behind the phrase,
Broccoli is just a bunch of small trees”

He finally, concluded he agreed
with Mr. natural or was it, Duke Ellington?
When he said it don’t mean a thing
Unless it got that do-wop swing.

for bonus points
