it was like a normal day
everything normally went
from morning till the evening
it was bordering on dreary
nothing seemed extraordinary
till sun went out completely
as it turned to darktitute
i could feel the empty room
filling in with nightly jungle
there were birds and there were ghosts
of many days ago
with desire to express
their lingering essence
with their voices rather hooty
and their constant foggy brooding
they stopped my heart completely
and i found myself alive
in the middle of dead night
though i seemed to seize existing
ooooo
i admit i had no notion
of this after life commotion
i had really no idea
it seems something of a game
designed to not get anywhere
but to fill in all the spaces
if you don't succeed a thing in a 20 hr spin
you may come to realize
it's a pointless excersise
coz a 20 hr spin is a very nothing thing
in the world of non-existence
and you're screaming off your head
though your voice's no longer there
not to mention your not being
you can go and haunt your brothers
shock the living lights of others
trip them out'a living
oooo
so i started hooting out
the most ridiculous alive
i'd say it's politicians
every house that is called white
has become my haunting ground
and scare them something vicious
and at night i poke their eyes
and i touch their wooden hearts
with my nonexistent fingers
and i mak'em really die
just to bring'em back to live
with a frightful repetition
and i'm dreaming of the day
they're truly back from dead
ready to commence a living
so i say go haunt your brothers
shock the living lights of others
trip'em into living
