In the Deep, Chilly Dark of New Year's Eve Night

A snake.
A slithery, slippery snake,
Winding its way through the fog in the field,
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A light.
A booming, bursting light,
Blasting its glow in the poor snake's eyes,
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

The rain.
The drizzly, drippy rain,
Dampening the light, that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes,
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A gale.
A blustery, gusty gale,
Blowing the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes,
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Night.

A tree.
A tall, sturdy tree,
Blocking the gale that
Blew the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes,
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, In the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A match.
A flaming, sizzling match,
Burning the tree that
Blocked the gale that
Blew the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A truck.
A flashing, screaming truck,
Spraying the match that
Burned the tree that
Blocked the gale that
Blew the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A car.
A smashing, swerving car.
Banging into the truck that
Sprayed the match that
Burned the tree that
Blocked the gale that
Blew the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes
As it wound its way through the fog in the field
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A giant.
A tall and creepy giant
That squashes the car that
Banged the truck that
Sprayed the match that
Burned the tree that
Blocked the gale that
Blew the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.

A snake.
A hissing, swishing snake.
Biting the giant that squashed the car that
Banged the truck that
Sprayed the match that
Burned the tree that
Blocked the gale that
Blew the rain that
Dampened the light that
Blasted its glow in the poor snake's eyes
As it wound its way through the fog in the field.
And the giant fell...
In the dark, in the dark,
In the deep, chilly dark of New Year's Eve night.
