Sometimes I smile being the thorn Of the self-righteous and first born Not sorry to ruin a few moments. Stolen seconds from swollen swine A brief pause gained against their gnaw. Yell your yodel of a young victim While your cup runneth o’er And you greed grows Forgive me for my moment of misstep I feel so foolish to consider my value In equality with the self-centered fool Clearly here is the treasure Your dreams of monotonous money The perpetual pit of possessions The incessant itch of inflation The ceaseless clawing for cash While I cluelessly cling To dreams of art and time.

Annoying Thorn
Sometimes I smile being the thorn Of the self-righteous and first born Not sorry to ruin a few moments. Stolen seconds from swollen swine A brief pause gained against their gnaw. Yell your yodel of a young victim While your cup runneth o’er And you greed grows Forgive me for my moment of misstep I feel so foolish to consider my value In equality with the self-centered fool Clearly here is the treasure Your dreams of monotonous money The perpetual pit of possessions The incessant itch of inflation The ceaseless clawing for cash While I cluelessly cling To dreams of art and time.
