1. I Died
2:30 pm, i jumped off the welfare wagon
to meet you for lunch. you sit like a thai princess:
cold and captivating. you divulge your latest secret.
(so sinister - i cannot repeat)
from my eyes flows glacier water.
from my soul, sick obscenities.
i died eating french fries
in the restaurant on the corner,
where you broke me heart.
i cried 'cause i bit my tongue
knowing the truth would wash over you
like a rash.
annihilation of my self-respect and cash flow
before my eyes - right here in this booth.
through this blinding hatred i see a lady on my right.
she winked at me and said, run for your life!
from my eyes flows glacier water.
from my soul, sick obscenities.
i died eating french fries
in the restaurant on the corner,
where you broke me heart.
i cried 'cause i bit my tongue
knowing the truth would wash over you
like a rash.
i hereby use my glacier water
to wash away the remorse and the stain.
behind these eyes i'm my mother's daughter.
hard, hidden shame:
and you'll never see me again!
2. Twitch
i got a boyfriend. he's a bad boy.
he is my favorite. he is my joy.
i got a boyfriend. danger boy!
he's got a girlfriend. she is my toy!
sometimes he'll twitch for no reason,
it's just a twitch, and it's part of his style.
he tells me i'm his one and only
i'm the only one making him smile.
sometimes he'll twitch for no reason,
it's just a twitch, and it's part of his style
when he's feeling sad and lonely
i'm the only one driving him wild.
he really likes me. he likes my mom.
he buys me ice cream. he likes my song.
he's got a nice car. i buy his gas.
but in the back seat, he moves too fast!
sometimes he'll twitch for no reason,
it's just a twitch, and it's part of his style.
he tells me i'm his one and only
i'm the only one making him smile.
(my boyfriend's back and you're gonna get in trouble!)
sometimes he'll twitch for no reason,
it's just a twitch, and it's part of his style
when he's feeling sad and lonely
i'm the only one driving him wild.

4. We're Not Gonna Take It
Oh we're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
Oh we're not gonna take it anymore
We've got the right to choose and
There ain't no way we'll lose it
This is our life, this is our song
We'll fight the powers that be just
Don't pick our destiny 'cause
You don't know us, you don't belong
Oh we're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
Oh we're not gonna take it anymore
Oh you're so condescending
Your gall is never ending
We don't want nothin', not a thing from you
Your life is trite and jaded
Boring and confiscated
If that's your best, your best won't do
Oh.....................
Oh.....................
We're right/yeah
We're free/yeah
We'll fight/yeah
You'll see/yeah
Oh we're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
Oh we're not gonna take it anymore
Oh we're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
Oh we're not gonna take it anymore
No way!
Oh.....................
Oh.....................
We're right/yeah
We're free/yeah
We'll fight/yeah
You'll see/yeah
We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
We're not gonna take it, no!
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
Just you try and make us
We're not gonna take it
Come on
No, we ain't gonna take it
You're all worthless and weak
We're not gonna take it anymore
Now drop and give me twenty
We're not gonna take it
Oh crinch pin
No, we ain't gonna take it
Oh you and your uniform
We're not gonna take it anymore
5. Eine Tasse Tee
all right this is my poem it's called eine tasse tee
are you ready? all right!
one of my dogs ate the feces of a homeless man on the way to the vet
of course it was anna 'cuz nikolas doesn't eat anything with sauce
i had to try to pull the offending matter out of her mouth with my bare hands
we stunk!
i wonder what the nutrition counter would list this meal as...
it made me think
my anti-malaria medication drove me to question my sanity
i hallucinated
i saw the bright red grip tape on my old skateboard
as a moving mass of demarara(?) sugar
my judgment seems impaired
things irritate me
people are mean
they drive too fast
they talk too fast
people carry anger around like one of those fashionable backpacks
but they're all actors
in public they behave certain... ways
you know at dinner with their friends out at popular bars and grilles
they chat and laugh
they call girls who look like me elvira
they call girls who look like me morticia
whatever
nice and happy life
nice weekend warrior weekend rollerblader suv decaf see a movie life
nice implants
good luck with your health
nice dairy
good luck with your health
nice bulimia
good luck with your health
nice anti-depressant action
good luck with your health
nice speeding
good luck with your health
everyone thinks they've got problems
wanna know a problem?
over one billion people in the world have no access,
that's no access, to safe drinking water.
and you're upset 'cuz you can't get those new dc's.
wanna know a problem?
the mobile phone.
we're all gonna die of brain cancer
wanna know a problem?
jeering hooting men with rohypnol in their back pocket
you already know at least five females who have been raped,
and you don't even know it
wanna know a problem?
the threat of nuclear war in india and pakistan
it could all be over, overnight
wanna know a problem?
the homeless
which brings me back to the shit breath of my bichon-frise
the shit shouldn't be there in the first place
because whoever had to go had NO place to go
that's fucked!
we are a complacent apathetic society
we are jackasses
we are all squirrels hoarding for ourselves
we need to say something and not care if it's been said before
we need to be responsible for our actions
we need to be more helpful
we need to be more thoughtful
i need to practice compassion who are the fuckwads
of the purveyors of violence
i need to relax
i need to exhale
i need to meditate
my mind is racing
my mind is a chattering monkey
nikolas's mind is on fire with paranoia
annastasia has shit for brains
after all, you are what you eat
i could use a cup of chai
nikolas thinks he's gandhi
he's on a hunger strike
and annastasia would like another hot steaming bowl of scheisse
