Secedin' Succeedin' in secedin' from the garden known as Eden is impossible to do For if you try secedin' from the garden known as Eden, you'll surely soon start bleedin' 'cause ev'ryone's against you Secedin' is a deed in which you'll never quite succeed For if you don't get feedin' then you'll eventually cede My advice you should be heedin' should you consummate this deed It never ever works out right; you ought to heed my creed If you're bleedin' and secedin' and my words you still aren't heedin' Then you ought to think of weedin' and the problem on your hands. When a gardener is weedin' plants they have to wind up cedin' And they get removed quite painlessly from their surrounding lands. Leadin' and secedin' while you're bleedin' and not heedin' Then my words you just ain't readin' from the bottom of your soul So you are really needin' to start heedin' and readin' Or you soon shall be a-pleadin' as the bleedin' takes its toll. So you won't be succeedin' at leadin' and secedin' 'cause you're gonna wind up bleedin' and eventually cedin' But if all else is just breedin' into evils in your mind Then know that you're succeedin' in the task of readin' This wretched little poem I concocted overnight!
