We eat the crumbs from off the table

And try to remember

The old gods

But we can't even remember why we

Think we should remember

//

WE ARE SO UNHAPPY

( is that it ? )




I always look around & think

I am in a ***** house or someplace weird

::

Aren't people suppossed to be moral

( or something like that ? )




The only gods I seem to barely remember

Are the Coney Island Freaks

""

The bearded lady

You know

THOSE gods !

THE REAL GODS !

//

I remember walking the streets of Greenwich Village  

We knew everyone was a god & therefore we loved life

And lived in joy

><

But all the old gods are gone

)(

I can't seem to always remember why I should care

<>

You look so beautiful when you are free

I remember when you still made love

And there were no strangers

And no need

To travel around in UFO's

Talking dumb **** about salvation !




Yeah

I knew you'd pop up in the story somewhere !

)(

Oh reality !

Here we come !
