Imagine grey, a sky like arsenic Clouds like insulated fiberglass And it’s raining too I’m standing outside, feeling soggy Looking greasy With a sad umbrella just Waiting to crack its ribs and turn Inside out It’s a contest, the first to blow apart And rot in a landfill wins I have coffee, but it has skim milk And looks opaque And smells like… Tea Squelch down the avenue and run into someone you don’t want to Accept the murky blanket of the day And trudge along Because today belongs to the Drudge

Day of the Drudge
Imagine grey, a sky like arsenic Clouds like insulated fiberglass And it’s raining too I’m standing outside, feeling soggy Looking greasy With a sad umbrella just Waiting to crack its ribs and turn Inside out It’s a contest, the first to blow apart And rot in a landfill wins I have coffee, but it has skim milk And looks opaque And smells like… Tea Squelch down the avenue and run into someone you don’t want to Accept the murky blanket of the day And trudge along Because today belongs to the Drudge
