While My Nails Are Drying
there are no seats waiting for us
I assure you
the way it's been described
I'd be bored off my ass, anyway
singing and praising for all eternity?
damn, that's a mighty long time!
I agree with Prince
in this life things are much, much harder than
in the afterworld
if there is an afterworld
after all, we may just be worm food
that would be fine, too
I could sure use a break
...I know the South scares you.
redneck neighbors drinking beer all day long,
dogs on leashes that bite your pants as you walk by,
church on Sunday morning followed by lunch at Luby's
I'm scared, too
and I've lived here all my life
but please believe me when I tell you
that we will get out of this place
if it's the last thing
we ever do
there's a life for me and you in Arizona
but first we'll need to talk to
an attorney
and see if I'd be safe there.
