Sew my ******* eyes open and never let me sleeep. Watch until my blues run red and you've shown me what's to see.
Tell the story of your golden crown, you platinum-plated ****. Let me know how brazen trumpets sound when filling up with spit.
It's not enough to hate you. And it's not enough to cry. Crying havoc through your perfect teeth: it's much worse than a lie.
So lay me down on 5th street train tracks where the old bums go to die. Then roll out on your cart of golden coin and break some toys.
Play the game of pampered princes painted like paupers and ******. Zip that costume up and hit the alleys. Catch a fix. Or a "swift one off the wrist."
Tug my bruising eyeballs out and lay me down to bed. Awake until the red turns black and your mouth starts spit- -ting lead.
Tell the story of your paper crown, you hollow-hearted ****. Let you know how hunting hounds do howl when crawling in the muck.
"You ain't nothin' but an *******," and "I don't believe in nothin' you're trying to prove." (The Falcon)
