You talk, we act
You learn, we seize
You inspect, we choose
You taste, we savor
You chew, we swallow
You bargain, we buy
You glow, we take fire
You assume, we know
You ask, we take
You search, we find
You love, we languish
You lunguish, we die
We sow, we reap
You work, we rest
You grow thin, we grow fat
You ring, we sing
You sing, we dance
You blossom, we bear fruit
