Thump—Cold & slow, they are not dead ...

Ah, the sweet "Thunk-Thump”

of sleepy Iguanas

as they fall from chilled tree limbs

on-to the cool damp ground.

Cold-blooded—

They are not dead,

are not dead,

are not dead.

They may fall from trees—

but they are not dead,

are not dead,

are not dead.

Cold & slow,

they are not dead,

are not dead,

are not dead,

Cold & slow,

they are not dead—

fallin' from chilled tree limbs

on-to the cool damp ground.
