Hump One and Hump Two

oh the people who love us
we can't
let them go
like those two-hump-ed
camels
they go
where we go

if we try
to shake them
or leave them
behind
it's impossible
really
they never unbind

if we are
Hump One
well,
then they are
Hump Two
if we travel far
then they travel far, too

If we feel
alone
Hump Two has our back
when our load
grows heavy
Hump Two
takes up the slack

Hump Two
sways
just like you sway
and stops
when you stop
Hump Two lives
right beside you
and drops
when you drop


so if you
are wand'ring
alone
in some fright
remember Hump Two
though not
right in sight
is breathing
behind you
is on
the same road
Hump Two never
abandons
because that's
friendship's code.
