Analysis of My Favorite Butterfly



The left ace of spades is high.
The queen of hearts what is this pig sty.
The suite it fits makes you fly.
Soar with wings my favorite butterfly.
What is it worth the reason why.
Soar, soar away my favorite butterfly.
Give it away there is no reason why.
To hunt, gather, and feed just to stay alive.
With food we stay alive.
To win at all costs we strive.
In the end will our planet survive.
Soar away my favorite butterfly.
