Piltdown Man

Dawson's Piltdown man

Teeth assembled from that of an orangutan

Why would he do such a thing?

Of course, what a stupid question

Outside our little tent

Your dog must have caught something

I followed you both and let out screams to be let in

Here comes your dad, annoyed, but wildly patient

Six AM, so loud your mom had to kick us out

We ran the wheelbarrow around and around

Last night I dreamt your face changed through the doorway as I pushed you panicking

Agonize in waking to admit

Moments raging though

So very small, like this

Outside our little tent

Your dog must have caught something

I followed you both and let out screams to be let in

Here comes your dad, annoyed, but wildly patient

Six AM, so loud your mom had to kick us out

We ran the wheelbarrow around and around

A template, if there is one

I still think of

A template, if there is one

I still think of

Outside our little tent

Your dog must have caught something

I followed you both and let out screams to be let in

Here comes your dad, annoyed, but wildly patient

Six AM, so loud your mom had to kick us out

We ran the wheelbarrow around

Think of the sound

In the afternoon you both fell asleep

Still knowing more than me
