Small Body on the Road Coat still sheened with Spring 
It's eyes still black And soft and warm and clean It's 
legendary quickness of feet Too slow for the truck's 
wheels Or teeth Matter of Minutes and hours all gone 
Picked up for someone else's feast And again, and again 
and again and again Body on the Road Coat still sheened 
with Spring It's eyes still black And soft and warm and 
clean It's legendary speed Outrun by hungry truck wheels 
The song was short as it was sweet His song was short as 
it was sweet Soft with Spring Warm and Clean Bright and 
Mean Short and Sweet Hungry Teeth Dull the sheen Make the 
Feast Soft with Spring
