life just sprang out of the sea
by chances indeterminate
and god appeared out of the void
to watch this grand experiment
the chicken or the egg
and the tree in the woods
examples are so lame
when answers and questioned
reasons and rhyme
all sound about the same

rats in the bathroom eatin my soap
feed'in some D-CON, pray to the pope
eatin' the dog food, squirrel it away
D-day will come I feel it I say
slow lingering death by
the watering trough
last dying gasp and a death-rattel cough
I catch them In traps
I shoot'em with guns
rodent destruction
see the blood run
river
the smell of the river my memories knife
the slightest aroma will cut me a slice
so I dream of reflections and a strange eerie light
what bodies are floating in the river tonight
down by the river
the smell in the morning
everyday should be sunday
untill it gets boaring
