Claw Hammer - For the “Do you ponder over shit that shapes itself?” Comp

Claw Hammer

My faithful claw hammer
Shiny metal rubber handle
Such a helpful heavy tool
You are quality in purchase
You’ve been with me a while
I trust you to do a good job
My mothers’ cranium was no match
For one clawed swipe from you
The repeated blows unnecessary
Just purely for my pleasure
We made a professional mess together
A necessary culling put to bed
Then buried in the cellar
Thank you my friendly hammer
I’ve just rewritten this song

 ‘If I had a hammer
I’d skull whack my mother
I’d skull whack my father
All over this house
I’d hammer out skull shards
I’d hammer out brain chunks
I’d hammer out the hate between
Me and my parents
All over this house.’
