Haiku Rumble
People gathered round for a haiku rumble
All the posers are gonna tumble
You better be ready, you better be humble
Yeah, you better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble
(Better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble)
Contestant Number One took a round
Autumn in SoCal
Warm green leaves; haiku engaged
We play with fire
Poets called next at the haiku rumble
Some held back their minds a-jumble
You better be ready, you better be humble
(Better be humble)
Yeah, you better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble
(Better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble)
Contestant Number Two was a clown
Wind chases ocean
Water pushes back like a
Eucalyptus squirrel
(What)
People gathered round for a haiku rumble
(People gathered round)
No inversions, no bees that bumble
(All the posers-tumble)
You better be ready, you better be humble
(Better be ready)
Yeah, you better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble
(Better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble)
Contestant Number Three threw it down
Metaphors at dawn
Allegories at High Noon
Crows in twilight dew
Yeaaah, that's how she won that haiku rumble
(That's how she won a haiku rumble)
Seventeen syllables, best not mumble
(Seventeen syllables woo hoo)
Ah, you better be witty, you better not stumble
(You better be witty, you better not stumble)
If you find yourself at a haiku rumble
(If you find yourself at a haiku rumble)
If you find yourself at a haiku rumble
(If you find yourself at a haiku rumble)
If you find yourself at a haiku rumble
(If you find yourself at a haiku rumble)
All the posers are gonna tumble
You better be ready, you better be humble
Yeah, you better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble
(Better be sharp, it's a haiku rumble)
