A Summer in Ohio

I could have a mansion on a hill
I could lease a villa in Seville
But it wouldn’t be as nice as a summer in Ohio
With a gay midget named Karl playing Tevye and Porgy
I could wander Paris after dark
Take a carriage ride through Central Park
But it wouldn’t be as nice as a summer in Ohio
Where I’m sharing a room with a former stripper and her snake
Wayne
I could have a satchel full of dollar bills
Cures for all the nation’s ills
Pills to make a lion purr
I could be in line to be the British Queen
Look like I was seventeen
Still, I’m certain I’d prefer to be going slowly batty
Forty miles east of Cincinnati
I could shove an ice pick in my eye
I could eat some fish from last July
But it wouldn’t be as awful as a summer in Ohio
Without cable, hot water, Vietnamese food
Or you
I saw your book at a Target in Kentucky
Under a sign that said, «New and Recommended.»
I stole a look at your picture on the inside sleeve
And then I couldn’t leave
Richard, who was with me, got uncharacteristically quiet
And he said, «All things considered, I guess you don’t have to buy it.»
So I smiled like Mona Lisa and I lay my Visa down
He wants me, he wants me
But he ain’t gonna get me.
I’ve found my guiding light
I tell the stars each night
«Look at me
Look at him
Son of a bitch, I guess I’m doing something right!
I finally got something right!»
No, it’s not Nirvana, but it’s on the way
I play Anita at the matinee
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray I can’t state in my bio
«I'm never gonna go back to Ohio»
I could chew on tinfoil for a spell
I could get a root canal in hell
But it wouldn’t be as swell as this summer is gonna be
'Cuz the torture is just exquisite
While I’m waiting for you to visit
So hurry up, Shmuck
Get unstuck and get on the scene!
Love
The midget
The stripper
Wayne the snake
And Mrs. Jamie Wellerstein!
That’s me!
