I got a little black book with my poems in.
I've got a bag, with a toothbrush and comb in.
When I'm a good dog, they *sometimes* throw me a bone in.
I got elastic bands keeping my shoes on.
I got those swollen hand blues.
I got hundreds of channels of shit on the TV to choose from.
I got electric light, and I've got second sight - I've got amazing powers of observation.
And that is how I knew, when I tried to get through on the telephone to you there'd be nobody home.
