This is the theatre of bubblegum dread A daily dose of drama for your head Mythic proportions, gloomy with steam It made the top ten in your dreams Avant-garde and ancient still Calm but violent is his will Here’s a dose for your blood and spine Subtract those who ain’t alive Apocalyptic, judging sneer Fields of green by yellow smeared Pure expressions of existence and joy But school is out, no more films or ploys Surrender to the unwaking moments Soul of a clown, basked in loneliness Psychological heart trip-up Be careful or you might get stuck Storms roll by when you’re with your cosmic mate A chess game for the ******, a wave to fate Drowned the lizard in a make-believe Rhine It only cost you about three dimes
