I have been hiding in the swamps for a dog-gone long week allday i have been trying to move my feet through the mud and the blood of mosquitos and alligators with the eye of a eliminator and with the hand of a monkey i was painting a portrait of myself without a helping hand the swamps fireflys in my oil lamp the swamps a big fire was burning at the end of the swamps The vines fell from the tree nearly fell on me all night i was using up my matches for no good reason at all exhausted i was laughing at silly parrots and spiders jumping in the fire while the frogs made the score like an out of tune choir the swamps the shadows were tall the swamps bigger than the biggest hall oh the swamps
