lyrics

I speak of thoughts that cross my mind
the world is chaos, unconfined
she moves around, and round she goes
like flames around a firehose
I never thought that I could sleep
among firm flocks of sheepish sheep
and yet I’d join the sick poor souls
to wake and watch the world go whole
Medicine . . .
What do I want in these sickbays primed with monitored medals?
how does it feel to be losing your health?
if I put new spurs on my boots,
expose my profile reeking of facebooks, twitters, and death,
pampered with sneers and smears of bullshit lies
coughed up in criminal companies,
arsonic arcades,
ballistics’ statistics,
bureaucratic cesspits,
war rooms?
Medicine . . .
I would rather throw my body from the chair,
tied to a table in a fastfood diner;
rather go shit my pants in front of family on prime-time tv
rather laud rotten vegetables with hobnob fries and make-believe pie
rather, stuffed like a cooked goose in France
dressed like a sitting duck in Disneyland
hung on a nail in Christie’s
sliced extra at the Worldwide Bake-Off
taught how to ski jump with Eddie the Eagle,
resurrected in 1988 somewhere on Calgary Hill,
than come down roaring in a blaze of
violence, filth, and villany
