Ode To Pie

Ode to pie
It tastes good
Chocolate is the best
It is sugary.

Ode to the taste
It swirls in my mouth
It is good in my stomach.
It is sweet.

Ode to my mouth
It lets me eat pie
It chews it for me
I am grateful.

Ode to pie
It tastes good
Chocolate is the best
It is sugary.

Ballad Of The Black Slave

This is the ballad of the black slave,
Who has been beaten and disgraced,
Who has been called the n-word and negro,
Who has received no pay.
This is the ballad of the black slave,
Who prays for freedom every night,
Who is going to rebel,
For what he thinks is right.
Now this is the ballad of the freed slave,
Who has seen much blood shed,
Who has fought for equal rights,
And who has won his freedom.
