Down Come the Mickey |
| It’s a particular taste in the mouth |
| Difficult to describe |
| I checked the secretaries on the subway |
| Blank pages with paper-punch eyes |
| And the black boys fresh out of prison |
| Are saying it’s easy on the inside, it’s just tough on parole |
| Hey man, we don’t need your money |
| Yeah, we’re just checking your pockets for holes |
| And the night crawls by with every cigarette drag |
| All shallow and twisted like a birth scream |
| No flash of light, no spark of life, no goddamn tunnel |
| Just a water-bug in a jet of steam |
| Down come the Mickey |
| Down come the Mickey |
| One more time |
| Down come the Mickey |
| My friends are bad Bukowski |
| And I’m a bad joke that’s repeated at parties |
| Don’t write it in stone unless it’s an epitaph |
| These things are worth one laugh |
| Down come the Mickey |
| Down come the Mickey |
| One more time |
| Down come the Mickey |
| A hit from behind |
| Hit from behind |
| Hit from behind |
| And this one’s for the ones that got it better than I got |
| And this one’s for the ones that got it worse |
| And this one’s for the ones that took it hard with a cheap shot |
| This one’s for him that wrote this verse |
| Down come the Mickey |
| Down come the Mickey |
| One more time |
| Down come the Mickey |
