Half a girl and half an angel
Half a woman and half a man
Half a hippopotamus and half a candle
Burning half the time
Half a place and half a plan
Half a leaf and half a tree
Half of life, half infinity
Half of nothing is still something
But half of something is nothing
Half a sock and half a shoe
Half a clock and half a screw
Go off half cocked
Come home half pissed
Make half hard then soft
Half on guard, she's half-missed
Half harmed, and half alarmed
By half a dog barking in half a barn
At half a cat in half a box
Which the Magician half canned
Before he left the magic circle
half-banned
Nothing is full except the moon
And nothing is empty except the cup
Nothing is half but a tea spoon
That stirs down emotions then stirs them up
Half awake, and half asleep
Half on the make, then half I'm weak
Be strong, be wrong, be fake, bespeak
The half love to take before full peak
Then I half explained with half a cigarette
propped up between two cheeks
That nothing can be claimed
Except by halves are leaked
Because seeing the full picture
Can be too much for half a brain
It needs the other half
In order to see the same
Then, oh
then only
Will two halves become one
And then there'll a golden sunrise
Like two halves of the same sun
