<poem style="border: 1px solid #8eb6d4; background-color: #0b0b14; padding-left: 1em; padding-right: 3em; border-radius: 10px; width: fit-content">
''(Ooh cagey, what you got?)''
What you got there, dummy?
What you got there, man?

''(Ooh cagey, what you got?)''
What you got there, honey?
What is it, a worm?

Dumb clouds are raging
Stupid clouds at my door
Creepy weather coming
Coming 'round my floor
Dumb clouds stay away
Don't come back no more

''(Ooh cagey, what you got?)''
Got an awful tummy
Oh no, it's inflamed

''(Ooh cagey, what you got?)''
It's so lonely, honey
In the state of Maine

Dumb clouds are raging
Stupid clouds at my door
Creepy weather coming
Coming 'round my floor
Well, dumb clouds stay away
And don't come back no more

I'm graduating in one more term
Because I haven't any time to burn
Repeating taste of high-heeled shoe
An eel is waiting under the train

Being chased around by the neighbor's cat
Well, it's so lonely in the state of Maine

Dumb clouds are ringing
Ringing in my ear
Mothers' wombs are crying
Ringing in my fear
Mothers never run
Except when rape is near

''(Ooh cagey)''
''(Ooh cagey)''
''(Ooh cagey)''
''(Ooh cagey)''</poem>
