hey you don’t think but I think twice
about the race you’re in and where its aimed
little german boy
feel your way around the blacktop on your chest
either way it will wear you out
all out
any minute now, you’ll meet your maker
she won’t know your name
oh my god, how embarrassing

you cant articulate
you feel an ineffable force in you and
you get on top of it
you have your doubts of it
but you don't question centripetal force do you
you'll have your way with it
its yours
and its crazy to think
how happy it is
to do what it wants to
it feels blessed
to do what it wants to
it has days where I think I just might
draw pictures all day long
please don't shake my television screen
the littlest king walks into
the last room he would ever walk into
there he saw everyone he's ever met
and they asked him recite all of their names
he got everyone of them right

she brings sunblock to a party
party goes off
daylight turns her into water
water is good
too many cooks can spoil the broth
she caresses my neck saying
"my, your skins soft"
and "is this where you want to be?"
I'm not positive the answer is no
shes in love with Polidori
makes my head spin
but no one else would
quite adore me so what's the difference
when I met her I was a man of the cloth
but now she want's all my clothes off
saying "is this where you want to be?"
im not positive the answer is no
hey
you know
you...
just want to get drived-by
for fifty years
and say if it does
then your dog will find out the lie
and what will he say
im not bluffing

houses made by people are breeding
they walk on eggshells
so its easy
people get very unhappy
when you put up red tape
on your nose

in the devil house
on the table top
my baby wakes up and she hasn't got a care
and it she's feeling blue
she can just turn the tv on
my baby gets down with the devil, if you will
you know it's nothing like that
you get there and want to go back where you came from
you know it cant be like that
but ill never see hell
and if she's feeling right
she just might
turn the tv on
but all of her possessions lose their value
when she's in your presence
and in our farthest room
you will see our hungriest boy
singing his songs with the tea party toys
when the instrument built to shake you
cant shake you
you'll put "maybe" down for "present"
so precious
we can sweetly keep on glancing for
the rest our lives
in the devil house
in the devil chair
my baby wakes up with
the devil in her hair

out of a clearing
an ice cream social arose
like a ghost
not ghost like betsy devos
riding a bus
and when the bus arrives
in an underground universe
you will get your first born son killed
hung
on public access tv
i wanna be or grow up to
now you're saying "yeah"
you're gonna wanna get off of it
dressed in a nightgown
betsy devos awakes to a note
not note like children's hand
right from under a bus
we're gonna have a big spectacle about this
we're gonna have ourselves a good time
when the note gets passed
from an underground universe

you
wake
your eyes will open wide
you’ll sense the world against your skin
and you’ll remember who you are
your name, your place
a certain place and time
you say, “it’s a chemical reaction”, now
but you are your mother’s son
and she was made of flour
stand
walk
it’s time you feel your feet against the ground
and do all the things that make you who you are
you know the feeling must be right
unless its not
its not
you wrap yourself in glass and shoot it out
“when I was a boy, my dad had super powers”
they went and drove my papa crazy
now he only gives me money
you are a composite of energy
and all your past experiences
socialization influencing
each one acting as a lens
to your sense of self
constructed subconsciously
and presented to the world

he can get all of his nutrients from outside
but he provides a service keeping up on ants and flies
I see him creep in from my window
he brings me peace in from his garden
he can spin his web wherever he may go
beneath the bed or the garden hose
we will see which ones get picked up
by the littles webs
but if he creeps beside my pillow
he will only make me nervous
and now his babies are on their way

hot stuff
you lick your plate
and get jaded over time
it will mold to you
it’s easier to say right when you’re wrong
not to say i’ve been wrong
but you and your festering evil eye
I know what you want for/from me
it’s easier to say right when you’re wrong
then to say, “i’ve been wrong”
the day you do
you’ll have yourself a day
