Buddy knew intelligence
Was a double edged sword.
And stupid is as stupid does and
Smart brings no reward.
The wisdom of crowds
Is a dangerous guage
Rat pilots on a ship
With a cargo of waves
Sinking so softly
While the rats behave
Like water is good
And the water will save
Rats worth saving
The saved know who they are
They watch the ship a’sinking
From their drifting sandbar.
None shall be rescued
Sealed is their fate.
As squeeks cry out from the drowning rats
The sandbar rats elate
They know rats can’t swim.
The future seems so grim.
And unless you’re safe on a sandbar
Survival is so slim
That rats agree
If they’re to see
Another day
Then they must stay
In the crowd stuck on the sandbar.
