I remember when rock was young, me and Suzie had so much fun, holdin hands and skimmin stones, had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own. But the biggest kick I ever got, was doin a thing called the Crocodile Rock, while them other kids were rockin round the clock, we were hoppin and boppin to the Crocodile Rock, well, Crile rockin, the song is shockin, and your feet just can't keep still, I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will... Oh, lawdy mama, those Friday nights, when Suzie wore her dress as tight as a, Crile rockin, we were out of sight. AAAH AHAHAHAH AAAAAH AHAHAHAH AAAAAH AHAHAHAH AAAAAH The years went by and rock just died, Suzie went and left me for some foreign guy, long nights spent cryin by the record machine, dreamin of my Chevy and my old blue jeans, but I'll never got the kicks we got, doin a thing called the Crocodile Rock, while the other kids were rockin down the clock, we didn't know the thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well, Crile rockin, the song is shockin, and your feet just can't keep still, I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will... Oh, Crile rockin, those Friday nights, when Suzie wore her dress as tight as a, Crile rockin, we were out of sight. AAAH AH AH AH AH AAAAAH AHAHAHAH AAAAAH AHAHAHAH AAAAAH

(((took some kids from staten island took a boat and we headed south took a violence to a milk man shot him right above his mouth looked out from between my bars and prayed as hard as I could manage asked for a place where I could go to reclaim my proper spiritual balance and then from nowhere up on mars I heard the bleeting of a lamb - "bah" between the honking of all the cars deep in the hot summer of sam. listen, can you hear him?))) still got some money in a bank account east of the river where they dump all the old bodies. i've started selling old tin cans to the people who don't seem to have any hobbies. i feel sorry for them, cause i was chosen, just listen, he's talkin to me! God said, "Denver, Colorado" guess i'll have to start moving all my stuff out to the far frontier pullin' out west to old colorado leave my family here i feel sorry for them, cause i was chosen, just listen, he's talkin to me! (thank you God for this amazing day for the leaping greenly spirits of trees i who have died am alive again today, and it's the sun's birthday, and the light and the breeze thank you God for this amazing chance I'm gonna learn to dance and make a realballroom dancer) and when he talks, you know you listennn

Nebraska 03:57
I'm gonna replace my kidneys with kidney beans, I'll replace my hands with Vanilla Coke, I'll replace my eyes with pictures of Richard Nixon, I'll replace your lightbulb if you give me a hand job. I got a girl who sleeps all day, knows when to work and knows when to play, she takes my Winston's when I try to smoke, I said, "You must be crazy, this must be a joke." I said, "Girl, we're gonna hafta talk pretty soon, but first let's head back to your room." And it's a terrible thing, but it's so easy." I'm gonna move to Nebraska, I'm gonna fuck myself, Nothin else for a boy to do, I can't just sit around here playin checkers all day. I've got no imagination, I've got no imagination, I've got no brain, I'll change my name to Chevy Chase, and spend all my time tryinta save the whole human race. I'll change my name to Jackie Chan, then I'll do the very best that I can. I'll change my name to Phil Collins, then I'll finally feel it callin in the air tonight, put on my Tim Allen costume I am never coming out. I'm gonna fuck myself, I'm gonna go to Nebraska, I'm gonna fuck myself, Nothin else for a boy to do, I can't just sit around here on my hands all day.

you can't count on the circle to guide you and the lack of names makes me say its done when its done then that's when the drums start and the life goes into water where it become just like a water fall of more girls than ever before with short short skirts and you just see the bottom of her legs and the smooth parts of her legs its enough to make you die it's enough to make your heart disappear and then the phone rings and its time for a whole new song (just put in a dime) a smilin' boy vibrates a message of hope and doom and expectation while the old man sadly drifts away without saying anything really with only curses of his situation and then you wanna break him into little pieces the waves they come and everything flowers leaving a void where used to be and the void fill up with an instant make me shudder it's the pass him round for them to eat cause he is just a pile of little pieces made of crumbs and pictures of small children. "thanks for accepting us as people and loving us and thank you for kissing me on the mouth many days ago when I was very sad in Amsterdam."

about

"This whole town. It's being invaded by the other world.
Worlds of someone's nightmarish delusions come to life.
Little by little the invasion is spreading.
Trying to swallow up everything in darkness."
-Harry Mason

Nietzsche.
Coca-cola.
Strong biceps, ouch.
Take advantage of the Left Key.
Surgeon General.
The old man in the sea go back to middle school.
Love Merryweather.
Just because you're paranoid.
Albatross some bean bags.
Never eat. Never eat today I'm
going to teach you about the ear.
Three Country People.
(bodies like equals)
The Lord's name wards off the devil,
if you say it out loud.
What comes next?
I'm afraid to say it out loud.
