With those acid wash jeans With that full sleeve of twirling black ink With the drapes of long hair I thought that we could leave the xplosion-club After the confection of colognes After the South African red wine After the pounding music all night Something **** about A statue that can move It's eyes Something **** about A man that thinks Openly
We took the subway back to my apartment You picked up a pebble and tossed it I was quieter now Would I let him inside? I have to at this point it seems A charming prince is a charming prince
I open the door. Nothing bad happens, as I expect I am a little paranoid I don't know why (The club flashes back) The door closes without its usual creek, And we're inside. Me and the charmer; I wonder, was he once a frog? I have a funny feeling that I think came from the wine Am I trashed or Does he have horns? Slimy toadskin, red eyes, 1000 inches of claws Suddenly Are upon me, Oh my God! I tell it to leave mE ALONE, It doesn't listen to me.
Every time I try to slip out of it's grip I slide into a claw Gushing this stuff from the movies, It covered the bed and then the floor, It probably leaked out from under the apartment door.
My cellphone rings in my pants pocket I can't reach it because by then this grendel thing had broken me Into two legs, a torso, two arms And a decapitated head While it eats my right lung, my left hand tries to desperately crawl away He pokes it with a great fork; no escaping crums The awful amphibian finishes and leaves forever. He's never coming back A winner-and-loser kind of ***, I guess.
I know that Grendel is typically a monster imagined as a hairy beast. But I wanted to name my morphing amphibian Grendel.
