Colorless Green

“COLORLESS GREEN IDEAS
SLEEP FURIOUSLY“
Classic case-study of B.S.
From the asked-
For linguist at M.I.T.
But I know we
Could soon be gone
When even Chomsky prophesied:
“Cthulhu Fhtagn”

Under the Sea of the Mind –
(For the moment, deceased)
Dreaming the End of Mankind
Is a God (and what’s awful is, he’s a Priest) –
And when the Stars are Aligned
He will Rise and Destroy:
Teaching those left about
New ways to Revel, Shout,
Kill, and Enjoy!
And even though
Lovecraft
Just wanted to titillate me
Yet I know
COLORLESS GREEN IDEAS
SLEEP FURIOUSLY

‘Cos I’ve got friends
Who say “anarchy” when they mean “chaos” instead
And “violence”
Any outcome than billions starving and dead
“Environment”
As a god stained with humans and longing for clean:
COLORLESS GREEN
Colorless Green
Colorless, Colorless, Colorless Green
Colorless, Colorlesss Green!

If ever Noam Chomsky
this brownnosing doggerel hears
I’ve no doubt
He’ll think it
just as much nonsense
as “Colorless Green Ideas”
But I thought he is
In none of my songs
And he could remind my friends:
CTHULHU FHTAGN!!!!
(Not like they’d belive me)
Colorless Green Ideas Sleep Furiously:
Ph’nglui mglw’nafh
Cthulhu R’lyeh
Wgah’nagl
… Fhtagn.
