Lyrics
Wednesday
Smoking cigarettes in the cemetery.
Thursday
Catching eels in silence
.
22 eels to be precise
.They lie in a red bucket and squirm
. It's getting dark
. No more bait
.
We take the bikes and head home.
Friday
There is a helicopter outside my window
.
I have my helmet on.
3 Tooth
Near the cemetery in a yellow house lives an old woman
. If you pick a flower for her she will give you candy. In a big house up the hill lives a man known from TV. If you bring him a dead animal he will bury it for you. Near the woods on a farm live two brothers
.
One of them has a common name. The other one has an indian name.
Hotdogs and Popcorn
Today 4 hippos swam straight through my heart
Riding an underwater wall of death in slow motion
. Around and around. A few minutes later we had hotdogs and popcorn
and talked about sharp fences
Smoke
There must be over 30 cats in this house
. I wonder who lived there first.
Look he comes out
! Maybe he is dangerous
or maybe just a little drunk
. There is a dead pig in the backyard.
Later we all get to taste a piece of bacon.
Social Skills
I'm lying still on the ground
. In the distance I hear voices.
Someone please roll me over and take the knife out of my chest
I am learning how to swim
I am learning how to swim. They dropped me off in the middle of the ocean
. I must learn fast before the sharks smell my blood.
Happy Endings
There is a white horse on the beach. It is made of glossy plastic and has beautiful long nylon hair… “Excuse me, is it yours ?”
