Standard (EADGBE)

sleeping late i hear the sad horns

of labor truck sigh

my neighbor walks by

 high heels click dry

like half a proud horse downbrook

i hear somebody's babbling i mistook

 for a cavalry whispering victory

to the sparks in their kindling

 but but all their green wood's wet and unmet

as of yet by the gases of flame

pressing again the pending physics

of my passed down last name

living in the tear between two spaces condemned

in one of the many places

you're not i am

hiding from my friends in the bathroom at thrift town

to write this tune down.

dun dun dun etc

(it just doesn't stop)

today after lunch, i got sick and blew chunks

all over my new shoes in the lot behind whole foods

 this is a new kind of blues, and what about losing

 limb or loved one in a duel, dissatisfies you or seems just

as a kid i did not shit my pants much,

why start now with this stuff

and man i do not bluff

 second caller gets bit by a dog or jeff dahmer

kisses or stitches, no mitt for these pitches

 liggity lone pone one, master of the cheap pun,

if i'm not raw i'm just a bit underdone

 but i'd be okay cool as a rail

if they'd just let us have health food in hell

dun dun etc it just doesnt stop

 good heavens, background radiation

and the black arts of waiting

not the same since i

switched my hair part and started shaving

 got hexed my hidden hair gone corners

oh i'll never be a joiner

life long local foreigner i

 raw lung homegrown fake in co-ed naked choir

second tenor highest riser blessed clever compromiser

 yeah i'll be proudly mouthing watermelon every song

i put the phone to my ear

but all's i hears a dial tone

 will they map my skull and wrap my bones

when my wig is gone, hmmm?

i'll go unknown by torpedo or crohns

 only those evil live to see

their own likeness in stone

dun dun, etc, it just doesnt stop

i cant decide

 while i'm alive i'll feel alive

 and what's next

i guess i'll know when i've gotten there

 well i'm alive, i'll feel alive

 and what's next

i guess i'll know when i've gotten there

end on F
