Swiss Army Knife
The light streams into my eyes
It’s too bright that I can’t tell any lies,
I can only hear myself breathe
It’s almost likes it’s a sheathe.
I reach for my Swiss army knife
It will save my life,
The most loyal thing I own
It will help me build a home.
My knife is sharp
It helped me build a tarp,
Out here on this island all alone
Why hasn’t anyone flown?
This knife has saved me
It helped me get rid of the beach flea,
Thank god I’m not sick
Because I sure must be quick.
Out on this island by myself
I finally hear something fly itself,
My Swiss army knife shines
And the plane declines.
