Universal Applicant

Without work's calving increments
 Or love's coltish punch
 What would I be?
 An animaless isthmus
 Beyond the sea
 Oh, bees only swarm when they're looking for a home
 So I followed them
 I found the bees nest in the buffalo's chest
 And I drank their honey, that milk
 I've seen this taste cased in almost every face
 That's working to see it in all
 And this kidnaps me
 Tied up in a boat and kicked off to sea
 In tight baby binding technique
 My arm chews through the swaddling slings
 There's a flare gun in my hand
 I point it straight and I point it high
 And to the universe it applies
 It lit things up in lavender
 Where I'd been was might go
 I saw the calf
 I saw the bees
 I saw the buffalo and the colt
 Well, I'm sure they all laughed at me
 At me solo in my boat
 The flare burned and fell
 The boat burned as well
 And the punk
 And the lunk
 And the drunk
 And the skunk
 And the hunk
 And the monk in me
 All sunk
 Sunk, sunk
 Sunk, sunk
 Sunk
