a lil biblical editing is in order

save all your sticky notes
tell the postman
to report directly to the sanitation department
i hate being a middle man

springsteen just told my life story
add the needle
and a contentious aggregation of persevering thoughts that refuse to silently submit
i will never date a girl called jennifer again
same bitch
different last name
it's not just ideology
i really want to believe in flux capacitors,
ghosts and the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

hey mr. beam
i hate the time machine you've created
piss on the fire
they better lock me up soon
i would prefer to be a single celled organism

if i was a christian man
i'd say that the grey hair in my beard growing faster
than the rest is a sign
too smart for my own good
i know better
than to put faith in anything
besides a genetic pre disposition to alcoholism

too stupid to feel pain
or too proud to admit it
momma works too much
and the rent keeps going up
bottled water is more expensive than gas
by the unit

we need

a righteous david blane to re do these cliff notes
i can never really see the big picture
looking at nostalgia through a microscope
