The Country Child |
All the actors say the streets are bathed in fire |
All the action happens in the mouth of a bourboned liar |
We’re gonna riot on the streets today! |
Smash an apple on the face of the state: |
Fundamentally opposed to the cut of your clothes |
Put your mouth in the sky and push it to edge of flight |
Autumn’s faction bursts into the Hyatt and demands a sum: |
The golden statue puzzles and attempts one awkward pun: |
Feed a fever as the five fevers rage |
Feed a fever and paginate your page! |
Fundamentally opposed to the cost of your coal |
Shopkeeper keeps a bowl and he spits his mouth’s full |
In spite of the winds and the customs of pimps: |
The moon sheds its rise! |
The moon sheds its rise! |
The country child cullllllled an abundance of hay: |
And I want his uncle’s gold: I want it today! |
I said it! |
I said it! |
I said it! |
Four fingered-waif's got to stop! |
Twelve ragged fingers pointing out at one! |
You stick a rose in the golden sand… You stick a rose in the golden sun… |
One writer is short of his daisies… |
