Sunoco's Gone

I awoke alert
As the rays of the Sun
Penetrated my misty mind
Like the mouse police
Still and sentient
The veil of time lifted from my eyes

As countless images flooded in
I tried to focus through
What was before became the same
With what was to come anew

My hair raised up
And as time undressed
A vision appeared in my head
A futuristic age
Free of speciesism
Unraveled and collectively said

Don't walk, don't run
Drop all your guns
Reduce speed to a crawl
Look left, look right
It's out of sight
The thrill of the earth and all

In a thousand years
Sunoco's gone
But the Sun still shines in the sky
And a spaced-out goat
On his flying boat
Will laugh and "baaah" on by
