Sloth

Sloths are arboreal mammals noted for slowness of movement and for spending most of their lives hanging upside down in the trees of the tropical rainforests of South America and Central America. The six species are in two families: two-toed sloths and three-toed sloths. In spite of this traditional naming, all sloths actually have three toes. The two-toed sloths have two digits, or fingers, on each forelimb.The sloth is so named because of its very low metabolism and deliberate movements, sloth being related to the word slow. This is an evolutionary adaptation to their low-energy diet of leaves, and to avoid detection by predatory hawks and cats who hunt by sight. Sloths are almost helpless on the ground, but are able to swim. The grooved hairs of the sloth's… more »

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Jakey's still with us, this I trust
Gone too soon, gone too young, and oh his hair was so yum
Jakey's gone, but not forgotten, let me see my Jakey, he hasn't rotten

And though we would like to, see his face down here
Jakey's no longer, but he is near
Gotta find my Jakey, Lord, in the sky
Wherever Jakey's go, when Jakey's die

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Jakey living, let me tell you Lord- it was a must
Gone too soon, gone too young, never again will his guitar strum
Jakey's gone, but he's not out, Jakey's with us, I do not doubt

And though we would like to, see his face down here
Jakey's no longer, but he is near
I gotta find my Jakey, Lord, in the sky
Or wherever Jakey's go, when Jakey's die

See my Jakey, up in the stained glass window
He's up in the stained glass window, lord
I need to be, with my Jakey, up there with him
And you know, there's only one way to make that happen, Lord
I have to take my own life

(Sound of a deep sadness, only known to those who have experienced Jakey's death)

His coffin, it's moving
Like the lid of the coffin- is shaking, it's moving
That can't be, Jakey- he's dead
He's dead, he must be dead
We saw him die
"It's me"
"Jakey"
That's my Jakey, don't play with me now
"I'm alive"
That's my Jakey, he's down, but he's not out
Ain't no way, no way he's, no way Lord, Lord

He's alive, he is alive, he is alive, my Jakey's alive
Lord I said, Jakey's alive, he is alive, Jakey, Lord, my boy
He said- he's alive, Lord, Lord
Give me my Jakey now, I need my Jakey, Lord, my Jakey, Lord
Give me my Jakey, Lord
I need my Jakey, Lord
Give me my Jakey, Lord
Give me my Jakey, Lord
Give me my Jakey, Lord

He is alive
Jakey's alive
Jakey's alive
Jakey's alive
Jakey's alive
Jakey's alive
Jakey's alive
