Grande Supreme
In autumn’s tranquil, moonlit night
I walked through embers of firelight
And in the air above my head
flew spirits of the newly dead
Floating in October’s chill
I think I see my uncle Phil
He’s there beside my auntie Fay
who holds a flame to light the way
Round and round they travel so
into the stratosphere they go
And disappear for evermore
Gone to Heaven's tranquil shore
But what is this? I'm floating too
Upon the wind, between the dew
I see my aunt and uncle there
awaiting me with loathsome stare
But wait! Why are they waving so?
It seems I'm sinking down below
Below the ground and into Hell
****, what is that awful smell?
Around me souls are crying out
from orange flames I hear them shout
"Oh God forgive us for our sins
We promise not to sin again"
But no one answers prayers from Hell
How long they'll burn, I cannot tell
They may be saved by half past four
or burn in Hell forevermore
As I descend, below the crust
the air is filled with sulfur dust
I gasp for every drop of air
that my lungs may somehow snare
But air is nowhere to be found
as my soul floats further down
And lands upon the burning floor
to suffer there forevermore
But friend you'll want to listen clear
If you don't want to wind up here
Avoid the food at Taco Bell...
*Or you may dream you're stuck in Hell
