There was thunder
There was lightning
Then the stars went out
And the moon fell from the sky
It rained mackerel
It rained trout
And the great day of wrath has come
And here's mud in your big red eye
The poker's in the fire
And the locusts take the sky
And the earth died screaming
While I lay dreaming of you
~Tom Waits 'Earth Died Screaming'

So much of you is so funny and vibrant, why don't we ever hear that?
