doe, a dead deer

by the side of highway 220
with her head in the air
as if she'd lick my hand if I reached out to her

do, a deer, a de-ad deer
(I watched The Sound of Music last night)

who do I think I am
what right do I have to be upset
how many thousands of termites did I murder

what makes a deer's life more precious than a termite's
nothing

It's because of Bambi, mka. And also we share that mammalian thing. Plus you're allowed to have simple preferences, and those termites didn't treat you right. Right?
