lyrics

Time really ain’t money

All I do everyday is

Mama’s little muskrat

Tell me where the bus at

cross tracks

candy cigarette jet packed rugrat

moon beam baby, five y-oh

Why I’m known, rolling beedies, and

getting baseball cards from 5-0

climb holes, sedate me

fly low, and graciously

because I don’t know what patience means

If I fake free, where does it take me?

make it, maybe incarceration, maybe

balance struck in wide eyes of justice lady

All I do every day is

Formal courtship will get you nowhere

Only suitable suitor can eat a full hare

Raw, one sitting, hide and all, with gull as fare

just a few symptoms of my lasting despair

pica, rifling dirt and surroundings for roughage (Feel fair?)

You can’t buy yourself time

No matter how hard you try, you can still give a shit

about or to, yourself from grime to slime

Freckles, hollering out, echo, to the geckos

Your uniqueness coffin won’t do you any good

Your dead hands can’t be clasping Henny Wood
Blind politician en utero debating

Genuine emotion and passionate delivery make him impossible to ignore. ... more
