Get your ass up
on that bar and dance
Before the blues
beat you down
Before I die
of whiskey
Before you fall
apart and take
this bar with you
Before that belt buckle
hypnotizes me
Before your ankles break and
the Heavens fall
Before we're all strangled by
sad songs and sappy poets and bad pickup lines and
Get your ass up

The signs in this town are unintelligable
the service is slow
ridiculous-style
but Stevie Wonder
is always on the radio
and the girls have fresh
Dow eyes, I don't understand it
????
even when it rains
the streets are hot
money stays green
I stay blue
traffic lights never change
and everytime someone runs
a red light

Dirty Dancing

We broke it down
to a heartbeat
X Files broke out
on the dance floor

The beat quickened and the death
of a skinny blonde girl
went unsolved - mind control was suspected- in the corner of the club

Mr. Roboto came out
graced the floor for the second night in a row
breaking
his recluse status
because he felt the heartbeat
and...

She had a rainbow in

Da Pope

I saw da Pope in da back
of a Cajun restaurant
He was spinning, with hot sauce and two
French women at his side
He was swearing in Polish,
yelling for more wine
I asked the waitress what his problem was
She said he was a regular
A holy pain in the ass
He blessed the place though
The owner thought it was...

The Wizard

Theres not enough
Room to dance here
The lights push me out
I push back and everything
Turns
Into Rainbows
I dont smile
Theres no beauty, its overindulgent
I dont have the money or the time
For Rainbows
I know what they mean
I know what they want

Mountaintops and miscarriages

Youll see everything
in the Big Easy
If youre not looking, in the right places

24 hour cannibalism
Beauty Queens broken
Fetish photography in the streets
Voodoo sacrifices in the homes
Murder in fast food restaurants
dysfunctional Fine Diners addicted to child pornography, dreaming
of starring roles on Jerry Springer
childhood Mothers working the streets and
Streetcleaners working endlessly

Yesterday,
I came...

Dont we dance in Kansas City
We dont dance in Kansas City
Were a sleepy bunch
we do a lot of sleeping
we pick a star and settle there
If we move at all, its only to protest the need for movement
the stupidity in it,
the lack of jazz
the embrace of fundamental physics too much for us
We cant dance
we cant control...

I rock
and roll all day
Giant relics collapse around me
and million $ merchandise is sold
at half price, Because ceremony
is useless / circumstance
is everything

When I landed in the place
I knew I was doomed to regret
everything

"Get in the car" I said. "I'll call the stripper"
We can handle anything
as long as she brings
everything

nope no sob stories here just pissed at the condition of morons whod rather hire anyone but someone whod really bust their ass given something worthwhile rather than mundane because he wants to be worth something and has at least half the brain to back it up heh.
no no family to help out which stinks heh.
i woudl apply
ive tried actually
one of the dudes who was friendly to me before we lost touch
he graduated from the same place but in journalism
one of those you cant hate them charismatic friendly to everyone always peppy no matter what now married to hot equally prudish christian girl type lol
well anywho yeah hes the EDITOR of his paper
and said none around would hire me cus of lack of experience or whateve.r... no political internships oddly enough too (funny i thought internships were to gain experience not to hire people with it already? confused )
well yeah ive talked to a few places but they insist on journalism + writing courses which i dont have and damned well aint goin to pay more student loan money for a job that woudlnt be guaranteed but WOULD put me further in debt
pisses me off too. sometimes i just think its solely cus im liberal or not pleasant looking or something
they suck. i really wish i could honestly make them see how much better id be than the other guy/gal that always manages to steal the job from me based on having a better background heh.
hey i cant prove myself if im not given a chance can i?

and i wave to our innocence as it passes by
