Meditate

If you want to meditate
You must learn to concentrate
Focus your mind on a single thought

Do it a peaceful place
A serene and quiet space
Make yourself calm, do not be distraught

Log off your computer, turn off the television
Quarantine your cell phone, you won't regret the decision

Soon you will be meditating
Deep thoughts you'll be contemplating
With a calm and peaceful mind
Try it if you're so inclined!

Hollywood Girls

When the Hollywood girls go wild
They must be exiled
From the mainstream population
Through a brief incarceration

Paris, Lindsay, and Nicole
Three girls who are totally out of control
To stay sober they cannot be persuaded
Every night they drink 'til they're inebriated

And though they are impaired when they leave the bars
They climb right behind the wheels of their Benz SLRs
And drive the wrong way down the highway or over someone's feet
You could say their actions are indiscreet
Which means that they don't give what they do much thought
That must explain why they always get caught

Because they lack even an ounce of discernment
They're taken off to jail for a little internment
And what's so crazy is that they could avoid this fuss
By getting a chauffeur or taking the bus

When the Hollywood girls go wild
They must be exiled
From the mainstream population
Through a brief incarceration
