lemonade
sometimes life throws me a big fucking lemon
too big to fit into my juicer
people's democratic republic of yemen
i must use it or toss it, it's a mold producer
throwing it out is a waste of creation
my knives are quite sharp and they're all self-made
national aeronautics and space administration
chopslice chopchop, if only i liked lemonade
Life is like a mop. Sometimes life gets full of dirt and crud and hairballs and things and you gotta clean it out. You gotta stick it in here and rinse it off and start all over again. And sometimes life sticks to the floor so much that a mop, a mop, it's not good enough. You gotta get down there with like a toothbrush, you know, and you gotta really scrub 'cause you gotta get it off! But if that doesn't work, you can't give up! You gotta stand right up! You gotta run to a window and say, "These floors are dirty as hell, and I'm not gonna take it any more!"
