Pigs in a blanket
We’re hot enough to wilt
And soon about to singe,
Wrapped in our crazy quilt
Edged with lunatic fringe.

To let lightning loose,

Stewed in his own juice.

Why, it’s just a bunch of atom-smashers!
Hey, wake up, Neptune: you’d better go douse
This fire! Those mortals will bring down the house!”
