Oh, I learned a lesson from the twentieth century
That I don't think we can just dismiss
After one hundred years of inhumanity
The lesson that I learned was this

Sometimes the solution
Is worse than the problem

I wish my father wouldn't try to fix things anymore

for everything he's mended is more broken than before.

If my father finally fixes every item on his list,

we'll be living in the garden, for the house will not exist.
