Under dark of night

Because of a recent outbreak of idiotic thugs

attacking people in downtown Chicago

I told my sister to be extra careful coming out of work

She replies that another group of teens were fighting 

in the street in front of the bus

Not long after my kiddo is spewing sarcasm over the phone

And my Mama is telling me of a 14 year old who's expecting a baby

So I've come to the conclusion that something has happened to the 13-19 year olds

and I have a theory

I will present this to the Nation's leaders so that we may begin arming our forces

I will share this with you now in case I 'disappear' in an effort to hush me

During the March tsunami that tilted the Earth

the hole in our ozone layer was torn open and destroyed the invisible sheath
that protects our worlds from alien invasion

something took this opportunity to enter our world undetected

(do you see his ugly mug here)

And in the dark of night

it took over our young ones

It's not very hard to recognize those who have fallen prey

The loving child you knew at bedtime

wakes up with glaring eyes (like those in the alien cloud)

snarling and wanting to break away from home confinement

causing mayhem

I wondered what exactly they did with our young

When the intruders took over their bodies

Until I looked down and saw all the little toads

hopping everywhere after the storm

Until I noticed that these were trying to go inside

into the home and not away

Those alien bastards!

I have no clue which of these is my son

but I think it's the one standing

trying to write a message on the wall

Until our government figures out a way

to get our young back

and send those aliens packing

I'll keep our young protected

Just let me know if you recognize this little guy as your son

and what he prefers to eat

(any peanut allergies?)

And if your young one hasn't exhibited any signs of a takeover

line his head with aluminum foil before he goes to bed

I hear it works well

Signing off for now

Perhaps this is a figment of my imagination

Perhaps the young are just being affected by something called

"the teens"

But I think that's just what the government WANTS you to believe

Where's that foil?

I lost the kid

Don't want to lose the dogs too
