Or So I Have Read

Animals can smell your dreams, or so I have read

That explains the constant sniffing under your bed

Or so I have read, it says it right here

And did you know that mixing paint with milk will make it clear?

Barber poles are found in the wild and caught in a cage

If you count the stripes, you can determine their age

Or so says the sage that authored this page

Who owns a self-consuming timepiece called the chronophage

Everything you hear is a fact

And the opposite is also correct

If you swallowed up the planet

You would be a wiser man

It would be inside your head

So I have read

You may not believe this, but it has been shown

The reason clouds are white is that they're made out of bone

And when I found out, I slapped my own face

For now I know why skeletons are up in outer space

Someday in the distant future, so I have read

Microscopic astronauts will land on your head

There's so much to know, can't put this book down

A mime is the hybrid offspring of a human and a clown

Everything you hear is a fact

And the opposite is also correct

If you swallowed up the planet

You would be a wiser man

It would be inside your head

Or so I have read
