THOSE ENDEARING YOUNG CHARMS -- the dark side of a good time †† don't act so surprised
Oh! I’ve been suffering the St Vitus Dance
With the loose change of yesterday’s papers jingling in my pockets. How about that for brass?
A song that sounds like shattered stained glass - that’s my only offering to you
Christened in the black tar of love. Christened with the veil of true romance.
Fed off of the drippings of those endearing young charms. It’s wishful thinking that got us this far!
This spectacular fascination with death
Now we’re singing for chairs.
I cave (Dissolute Disrepute Disillusion)
I save (Disappear Disengage Disobedience)
Fine! As if I haven’t already said enough
The rest has already been written - I’ve already spilled my guts
So when do I get to sing “My Way”? And “If!” & “Or!” & But!
Where does the red fern glow?
It’s a karmic knot - reach for the stars & your wrist gets slapped
Ipso Facto in Memoriam - the universal marching insects are chewing across time
Alert the witches of Mendocino that they’re headed for the jello factory.
I erase (Unamused Underused Unwelcome)
I waste (Overgrown Overcame Overtaken)
I may (Predate Premeditate Preservation)
I say (Antiquate Apostate Apparition)
I wait (Subjugate Subway Subdivision)
