Jingle jangle my odes a bangle,
I wear proudly round by brows
Piggly wiggly, my poems bigly
speak my happy, flapping jowl
Spoken words powerfully said
like a sonnet laying in my bed,
hocus-pocus, here's the rhyme
slay the words as slicing lime!
Jingle jangle my odes a bangle,
I wear proudly round by brows
Piggly wiggly, my poems bigly
speak my happy, flapping jowl
Spoken words powerfully said
like a sonnet laying in my bed,
hocus-pocus, here's the rhyme
slay the words as slicing lime!
I am a corpse
A living one
Until the day
my days are done
I'll start to rot
And then to reek
A smelly stiff
who tends to leak
I am a corpse
Of bone and flesh
Who soon will be
no longer fresh
My skin light/white
And then pale grey
I'll soon be dead
but not today!
All human tradition is bogus
all culture must be cancelled
we must start from scratch
and the new mark must be science
So sing and shout, dance and sway
but become entranced by science
praise each other and praise the day
remembering the answer's science
Chant the names, and chant them well
these names we chant have feeling
pray prone now, bow on bended knees
know only science names have meaning
We end up a corpse, fuck!
a goddamned, cock-sucking corpse
we end up a corpse, of course
that's how it works
We're all just a walking corpse, shit!
sooner or later a corpse
we end up a corpse, of course
that's how it is
I want what you have
you envy me
you want what I have
I envy you
we want what they have
they envy us
they have what we want
we envy them
Oh thank you thank you thank you
For these last years of my life
And thank you thank you thank you
For my fourth and final wife
Oh thank you thank you thank you
For these last swims in the sea
And thank you thank you thank you
For perpetual my spree
Oh thank you thank you thank you
For these last glad golden times
And thank you thank you thank you
For the tenure of my rhymes
An alpha male shat 'pon my sonnet!
He called it trash and then squatted
Calling for Buddha I became quieter
fearful because he's a huge hothead
The top dog then wiped his asshole,
using the medicated poem as paper
Focusing o'er grateful and thankful,
I remember never trigger for haters
We have come a long way
Many years in the field
We have lost our fair share
But at least we have healed
We have come a long way
Many years on the road
We have traveled this far
Time to lighten the load
We have come a long way
Many years on the run
We have won here and there
But blazed under the gun
We have come a long way
Many years in the mix
We have made it this far
Time to get our last kicks
We saw the moon eclipse the sun, cowering in fear
we said that must be 'God', which offered us some cheer
We saw the shooting stars, falling down to Earth
scared we stared and asked, is the 'God' giving birth?
We saw the lightening strikes, frightened to our cores
we said this must be 'God' again, just like the times before
we saw the mighty mountain, spitting smoke and fire
we ran to hide but said looking back, 'God's' easy to admire!
We saw the Earth at center, because 'God' told us so
we said we can't explain it, it's just something that we know
We saw 'God' in our image, as we admired the mirrors and said
'God' is real and you must accept, or else 'He'll' make you dead
I need to write one more, before my bones are dust
I don't want to pen another, 'tis closer now to must
Shakespeare's singing, new science play's a thing!
I need to say some truth, while I'm a human being
I need to own this ode, focus well 'pon what's said
I hope religion's banished not long after I am dead
