Flung far your thirst to destroy me

Chocolate Makes You Happy

Chocolate makes you happy
s
And it keeps you awake
s
As you unbutton your top pants button
s
Bewildered by the pain
s
Oh, oh, oh
s
Chocolate makes you happy
s
As you deign to sing along
s
When you thrust your fingers
s
Down your throat and
s
Wash away what’s wrong
s
Oh, oh, oh
s

Out of your mind with happiness
s
Incredibly dumb, incredibly ugly
s
To have die the one you await for
s
All that you sign all that you sign
s
And wait for
s

Out of your mind with whorishness
s
Incredibly young, incredibly filthy
s
Oh, to curse both your life and death

Oh to curse life, oh to curse life
s
And death

Chocolate makes you happy

And it keeps you awake
s
As you unbutton
s
Your top pants button
s
Bewildered by the pain
s
Oh, oh, oh
s
Chocolate makes you happy
s
Like a credit to the race
s
As you ruminate in the arms of coco
s
On the fatness of your face
s
You might also like
s

Out of your mind with slavishness
s
Rough, close and cold
s
Rough, close and cold
s
To have died the one you await for
s
All that you sign, blush, wish and pray for
s

Out of your mind embarrassment
s
Out of your mind
s
Out of your mind
s
Out of your mind out of
s

Chocolate makes you happy
s
And it keeps you awake
s
As you unbutton
s
Your elaborate garter
s
Bewildered by desire

Oh, oh, oh

Beat, beat me to death

Gray death, beat me

Beat, beat

Beat, beat

If you are expecting consolation

I will become outrageous

If you expect me to be outrageous

I will be extra outrageous

Chew the corner of your mouth

You have never liked the taste

Oh, you were beautiful when I loved you
s
My little bank robbing boy
s
You were beautiful when I lost you
s
Like a whip covered in pins and glue
s
When will it end?
s
When will it end?
s
This sopping wet towel of stupidity
s

Supplicated to the fawn
s
Fold back my pajama sleeves
s
Take a look at what I have done
s
You can protect nothing
s

Beat, beat me to death, I said it
s
Beat, beat me to death

Gray death, beat me

Gayle Lynn

Is this the first time
s
You’ve known regard?
s
Two weeks not enough to earn notice
s
Why are we like this?
s
Cut at what’s already cut
s

The littlest of stones
s
No one visits this
s
Solitude and death for you
s
Gayle Lynn
s
1948
s
Unloved infant girl
s
The loneliest of graves for you
s
Gayle Lynn
s

Does your daddy’s grief
s
Excuse disdain?
s
But to have as well
s
Watched Lee die?
s
Terry and Kathleen
s

The littlest of stones
s
No one visits this
s
Solitude and death for you
s
Gayle Lynn
s
1948
s
Unloved infant girl

The loneliest of graves for you

You hear this every day
s
But keep them safe forever
s
You’ve heard this one before
s
But keep them safe forever
s
You hear this all the time
s
But please, please look after them

White Nerd

Oh, you could have been a diamond
s
A flicker in the campfire
s
But what shall you do now?
s
Nothing, nothing, you will do nothing
s

Or, you could’ve been the 13 of spades
s
Destroyer of the jerk-off of hearts
s
Well you know, where should you go?
s
Nowhere nowhere, you won’t be anywhere else
s

I am right, vigorous (Oh yeah!)
s
You are wrong, pig-orous (Oh yeah!)
s
Holy F, holy U, holy C-K
s
O-S-H-A-W-A
s

Oh, you could’ve been a Modoc
s
The last free Indians in Washington
s
500 or 600 girls like you
s
Spilling their Percocet out on the lava flow
s

White nerd, what have you learned?
s
White nerd, you let us down
s
White nerd, what have you learned?
s
White nerd, you let us down
s

Oh you could’ve been more anti-yourself
s
So astoundingly unsilent
s
But makeup over your pimples
s
Will blow us fresh away
s
La, la, la, la, la, la
s

I am unwrong, vigorous (Meow!)
s
You are unright, pig-orous (Woof, woof!)
s
Holy F, holy U, holy C-K
s
O-S-H-A-W-A

Black nerd, we let you down

Puff and Bunny

Of a life that’s allotted to be yours
s
A trifle
s
Oh, take it from me
s
That tonight is closed
s

Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
Hot pepper
s
Look at me, I am alone
s
Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
I’m single, I have no friends in my new city
s
Hot pepper, I’m alone
s
Without dignity for you to consider
s
Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
Look at me
s

To babble
s
To beg for
s
Your likes exposed
s
The idol grants you this lie that is hope
s

Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
Hot pepper
s
Look at me, I am alone
s
Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
No friends in my new city
s
Hot pepper, vanity
s
Without consequence for you to trip over
s
Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
Hot pepper, hot pepper
s
Look at me

Child at Arms

Foul deeds, indeed do bring prosperity
s
We may not know our age
s
We just fought
s
The rifle is heavy beyond compassion
s

So new in destruction
s
Your teeth will be forgotten
s
War for cricket children
s
Place her foot on the log and chop it off
s

Brown, brown makes light
s

Your idea of dying is gone
s
Your idea of killing is printed on the body
s
Evil is with you all of the time
s
Evil is with you all of the time
s

Evil is with you all of the time

The Leash

Perseus holds the head of Medusa
s
Oh, what I would give to be her
s

My hands cannot hold steady
s
When you reach out to me
s
Jamie boy, oh, if you could tell
s
Would you ever be taken as I am?
s
That I looked to you every night
s
You did not seem to notice
s
God had made your sweetheart wrong
s
Born to suffer, born only to die
s

A dog will rut its way into harm
s
When one lets off the leash
s
To reveal what I once was
s
Just for once, just for once
s
In this, she is not unique
s
To have lied to a lover
s
If for want of a pure touch
s
To be common, to be seen as I am
s

Salute your rage, a hammer
s
Beat upon me, crumble me as powder
s
Wipe me off of your uniform
s
It’s the same blood that you loved
s
I don’t think that you are a fool
s
But you cannot deny me as a woman
s
Oh, ensign, I was your woman
s

You Are Pregnant You, You Are Dead

Never had I seen a woman falling down
w
To the grass court
w
Gingko across her face
w
Yellowed by a child and a boyfriend
w

Calling so hard to its father
w
“Bury me in the sawdust!”
w
Deepen the dread
w
Gotten rid of by this self-immolation
w

Never had I seen a woman falling down
w
To the grass court
w
Gingko across her face
w
Yellowed by a child and a boyfriend
w

The dust that hides the glare
w
Of the sweetness of the pyre
w
Feel you turn into tears
w
And ashes inside my lungs
w
