Waving signs at nine

Cops on every corner, well alight
Freaking out the populace
Waiting for a nonexistent fight.
Our security has come to this.
Who knows what kind of chaos here
Has been born out by theater.

Spark 'em up at nine

After this week, I can't EVEN
But, I won't take it laying down
So, instead, let's come out swingin'
And bring some dance music to town.

We launch at nine!

After all the monkeys,
After all the dogs,
We finally sent a human up
To do a human's job.

With a simple way of speaking
And a boyish, goofy grin
Tonight's the night we've set aside
For dear old Gagarin.

I demand tea and tissue at nine

Spring is here! And summer, soon
Vacation time is calling.
But for now, what spells our doom
Is all this goddamned pollen.
