Round and Square


I remember the day when round met square
at the barbershop getting hair cuts for their hair
they both got mohawks and started to stare
that was the day that round met square

nobody thought that they could be friends
they were obviously different and then yet again
they both liked ice cream and walks in the wind
but still nobody thought that they could be friends

the national news reported the pair
walking in the park they were photographed there
everyone wondered how a round and a square
could possibly make such a cute little pair?

other shapes saw that right was right
polygons and rectangles came out at night
a cube and a cone were hand in hand in daylight
and everything was starting to feel alright

these days you can see a straight line
out with a point at a restaurant to dine
and it's hard to believe that there ever was a time
when a round with a square was a national news headline
