I saw your DNA on the carpet Televisions melted in a fluorescent pool We are only somewhat distracted We are only somehow here We are operating machinery Our eyes look out but we’re not really there She pulled an Imam from her pocket Smoked him her dreams turned bloody violent Listening to MLK preach peace (peace) Talk about how easily we’re indoctrinated We are only somewhat distracted We are only somehow here We are operating machinery Our eyes look out but we’re not really there “Don’t be so modest [you] you’re not that great” – Golda Meir

Don't Say Sh 04:24
You don’t know it got a long distant call to get back to ‘d like to chat but gotta sit in the lobby and wait for the limo Service is fleeting here in the Badlands of family relations Friendships remain friendships are strained It can never be the same What was ever the same? You don’t know it got a long distant call to get back to Miles of desert casino casino next to a Walmart They all look related over the border in Tennessee They got a house but they might need their stuff out in the yard Mason jars pet goat’s on the car cinder-block mounted unstrung guitar Ma drives around at 300 lbs in her Walmart go-cart What’s more I’ve fallen I can’t get up What’s more I’ve fallen I can’t get up Help! I’ve fallen I can’t get up Hey I’m talkin to you you you you Hey still talkin to you you you you Hey we got an RV with a TV and a fridge You start your diesel it’s 4 a.m. where ya goin? We we all got K9s after yers you don’t pick up [listen up] You don’t say sh to me sh I say sh to you Why you no pick up after dog Why you no crean up yard I no rike coror o your riving room Why don’t you go talk to a tree? You don’t say sh to me sh I say sh on you

Eyesore America place your ad here Service warm as our biscuits One beer stands clear Where will you go when you die Jesus gawna do a flyby If I’m hypnotized or unresponsive Go ahead and pull the plug I’ll be on my way Assisted suicide’s a dignified escape Wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper Have it your way When it’s time to relax Free legal consultation Pregnant? Adopt a highway Injured? You’re not alone If I’m hypnotized or unresponsive Go ahead and pull the plug I’ll be on my way Assisted suicide’s a dignified escape

False Friend 04:15
It’s a false friend It’s a false friend When did you learn to care so much about what they think? You think they’re looking at you? You think they care what you do? When they’re wrapped up in their own stool They don’t have time for you So long as you don’t throw them off balance It’s hard to describe these mixed feelings I wanted to sing a sad song But it’s not coming to me Hear the sirens See the lights I see a small crowd gathered here tonight I see a lady face down on the ground She’s not coming around No, she’s not coming around No more

My obligations as a son To pick you up are done Make yer own way now

Orange Cones 04:18
“Happiness seems like a betrayal of principle without you” – Ian McEwan Laughs no longer frequent from the gut no more Gotta find my way out from this feeling down It’s no place take your shoes off eat your meals stay The road is closed with orange cones They wave you to go around They put you on a country road The light is strange from the sun Over you pull exit your car Looking upwards at the sky Snaking vessel tentacles Your mind ask How? ‘stead of Why? But happiness does return Though you’re scarred scared Does return happiness Even when you’re unprepared

Oh happy day Gonna have the filmmaker arrested whose responsible for the death of your son Gonna have the filmmaker arrested whose responsible for the death of your son The elephant in the room is somehow invisible True believers shall not befriend Christians or Jews Oh happy day Gonna have the filmmaker arrested whose responsible for the death of your son Gonna have the filmmaker arrested whose responsible for the death of your son Peace will then descend on all creation Like frolicking naked in the gentle Spring rain We’ll all have Coke having learned to sing in perfect harmony Drone drone drone Strike strike STRIKE La la-la la-la la-la

Quote MLK 03:57
We see what Sharpie’s deeds have reaped In your hostile communities He lay the blame on other men Some of whom accept this guilt I am I am not one I am not one He love the power Sharpie does Calls you Brutha it’s suspect Every conflict black vs. white He pulls the noose around your neck You black kids never had a chance You’re standing now upon the deck He stand with Tawanna criminal Pulls the lever watch you fall “In the end you’ll remember not the words of your enem[y], but the silence of your friends” – MLK Spike Lee say, “If you don’t vote my way we are no longer family” I know not of another way to interpret what that meant Some say family before politics ideally Strange how my extended fam loud flack bloke silent as a clam Little did they know Little did they know I did note their silence meant with Spike Lee they did vote Quote MLK

Started off bad Never did regain composure Oddity You and me Chemistry Sour In this strange mix I see Dark hilarity Despite your digression I thank you Ross for Robert Dunn “Almost a whole day without Making a fool of yourself Almost a whole day wasted” – Robert Dunn Defy your expectations Poet laureate Snot what you thought Prejudice Could’ve played the irritant! Ever written Haiku? I have It’s good

Got 2 K9s One look like a sphinx One look like Chewbacca They’re both Swiss Flew a long time to get here We show ‘em America In our RV with a TV and a fridge They get burrs in Utah Pull ‘em from their fur Red clay blow Turn a white dog pink Running donuts in the snow Swim for a red ball If we find a river Or we got a lake They don’t do well If they drink the salt water In the ocean With the driftwood And the seagulls And the dead fish Rocks on Maine sea coast With a lighthouse And the traulers Got to get on the road Get off the road Get on a trail Use they nose So much information Come through they nose Scent on a trail Pick up da Kot Opening pee-mail

I am mm hypocrite I am mm hypocrite Don’t know what I can do for you Don’t know what I Can do for you Lady got eyes that cry Woe is woe is me No matter how I try To reach you won’t be reached Wisdom says that you The first step must be yours Every trigger dreadful stress Shoo Shoo madre bottle bitch

Unfilled Unfulfilled Smelled so good but had no taste The girl was prettier than her face Premature withdrawal from a Madonna Concert She looked bored Thrusting in a waterbed see myself on infrared Where’s the rest I’ve not been blessed Guess I’ll use my fist instead How does it feel to be small Paul? How does it feel to be homely Natalie? Un Filled Un Fulfilled Aw we can’t leave it like that Let’s get… Satisfied Get some toys or other ways of playin Get some toys or other ways of playin

B Be Honest 04:25
Guess you learned to lie A long time ago To get ahead Now it’s hard to break You cover your ass At what expense No one trusts you Not even your dog When the times call for change Virginia (within ya) The bearer’s words if ugly may prove true Boring you thought To be straight Lying made you A momma drama You believed in Stereotypes An artist must starve A woman must lie Speak your mind Or walk on egg shells I love pussy But I don’t wanna be one Scooby Doo Doobie Doobie Doo

Grief 04:39
What happened to my youth? I remember a show store The original Star Wars poster 77 R2D2 C3PO Came back from the shoe store Where were you Pop? Took us on a houseboat The Burlington waters of Lake Champlain A turbulent storm Pounded the houseboat against the dock I was trying to tie off My leg suspended over the side You picked me up Saved my 10 year Old leg Sleep alone Oh well rocket’s on fire When you come back from space There’s no one to greet you Wish I could’ve saved you Like you did me All I could do was spectate And watch your agony Oh those doctors American medicine Couldn’t do a goddamn thing to help you This time Dead end Snow falls Silent Grief

All your side effects Pharmaceuticals All your insecurities Americans Lawyers will get their your money If you’ve been in an accident Can’t escape the TV commercials Edited for TV watered down cinema Baby Turn that shit off You’re killing your mind Your creativity What’s worse You’re killing me Which is why I feel the need To play Guitar I need To play Guitar

Too late to die young It’s too late to die young Neptune and crocodile lay dormant But they always are ‘til the humans start their parades Show of fertility Mardis Gras The spilling seed Naked leg Behind the torrent the flooded streets The revelers for lusty beads The shameless acts from too much drink Masked bravado The fertile egg Too late to die young It’s too late to die young Beyond the smells of tourist waste Is bass-a-saurus Surinck Ray Twenty years NOLA resident Like the tide returns When the tourists went He’s of the street Working class Life’s been unkind but he still stands tall Too late to die young It’s too late to die young

Shriek Hyena 02:57
What point is there to talk about it? Shrieking You can’t be heard The concept: conversation Goes from mouth to ear from mouth to ear with pauses in between Time to think To reflect Consider Sometimes reject Though nothing penetrates your shrieking Shriek hyena shriek hyena shriek hyena shrieking Shriek hyena shriek while I am speaking Shriek hyena shriek while I am seeking No common ground today The slaughter goes on Inner city blues Politicians everyone Politicians everyone Politicians everyone
