Oh, oh, oh, the rain pours
|
The cat coughed up one of her fur balls
|
And I cleaned it up and ten minutes later she was snoring
|
And the rain kept pouring and pouring
|
Tapping on my roof like fingertips on the face of a banjo
|
There’s a crack in the seal of my window
|
Two decades in a hundred year old building will show its wear and tear
|
Many have come and gone but I won’t go
|
Not yet, no no, no no no
|
This is my haiku of the day:
|
«I didn’t do much
|
At home I laid in my bed
|
In my bed I stayed»
|
Yeah, the cat threw up one of her fur balls
|
I thought you wondered what us rock stars did on our days off
|
Does it upset you that we clean up fur balls?
|
Are you mad that I laid in bed all day scratching my balls?
|
If you’re upset, please don’t write things on the restroom walls
|
It’s depressing enough in the restroom stalls
|
Don’t write ugly things on the walls, it ain’t good for you
|
Don’t write hateful things on the walls
|
Well all the bitches are whining and whining
|
Me and the black ocean are shining
|
When I talk, a lot get spoke
|
We don’t need to, me and the black ocean
|
I just told you, we don’t need to
|
For we are shining, shining, shining…
|
Nature’s leisure, your brain is picturing your tongue on a clear
|
A sweet mouth on your dick, everyone in this world are hypocrites
|
We’re all half bloods and we’re all half crips
|
Dirty sluts, your mind in the gutter
|
Your brain has a picture of you jerking off on Earth
|
We’re all just searching and we’re all full of shit
|
We’re all just searching, baby, and we’re all full of shit
|
We’re all just searching, baby, and we’re all full of shit
|
We’re all just searching, baby, and we’re all full of shit
|
The rain tonight is splattering on my roof like
|
A thousand drops of a hundred years' worth of leftover chicken curry
|
She smiled and up to my right on the bookcase
|
Is William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury
|
Whoo! |
Whoo! |
Whoo! |
Damn you all, damn you
|
You will, will you? |
You will, will you?
|
You think you will? |
The bones of glass crack
|
Flapping slow and heavy, all it is
|
What’s your name, little girl? |
What’s your name, little girl?
|
A woman is either a lady or not
|
Something no longer heard in a lacker’s mouth
|
I will sweep past your door, door, door
|
I was not who was not who was not who
|
After a while the laughter ran out
|
What did you do today?
|
Did you love or did you hate?
|
Did you bury their dead body or were they cremated?
|
And when they died, did you write beautiful words for them?
|
I know you did, I know you did
|
Cause if you didn’t, what is you is?
|
What is you if you got no words for the dead?
|
I got words for the dead and so do you
|
You got words for the dead
|
Cause if you don’t, then what is you is?
|
So mind you mind you mind you mind you mind you Benjy
|
Not Quentin or Dalton or Jason III or Dilsey
|
He 33, he ain’t equipped mentally or emotionally
|
And he cry and he cry and he cry like a baby
|
It’s a cry that we all cry deep inside
|
When somebody does us wrong or injures our little baby pride
|
Men don’t let other men know that they are crying
|
Men want the other man to think he is high flying
|
And I know we are flying high brother, for we are shining
|
We both know when the other is crying, for we are shining
|
Am I sinking or am I climbing?
|
A little of both as we all are, or we’d be lying
|
Well for our attention the bitches are pining
|
Where you at, black?
|
Are you there, my brother?
|
Something tells me you are my brother from another mother
|
I’m down here in New Orleans, I’m here in New Orleans
|
And where the fuck are you?
|
I know where you are, for we are shining
|
You’re driving around in your Mercedes, driving the ladies crazy
|
And I’m sleeping in a lot late lately
|
Fighting against the temptation to be lazy
|
And that’s it |
