I think it’s important that people don’t feel alone.[/b]
In other words, always be your own best friend.
I always believed that I have something important to say and I said it.
Let’s pin down what that was.
The only thing constantly changing is change
The living only become dead
Your hair falling out
Your liver swelled up
Your teeth rot your gums and your chin
Your ass starts to sag
Your balls shrivel up
Your cock swallowed up in its sack
The only thing constantly changing is change
And it’s always change on your back.
Just what we need, another optimist.
[b]I don’t know just where I’m going
But I’m goin’ to try for the kingdom if I can
'Cause it makes me feel like I’m a man
When I put a spike into my vein
Then I tell you things aren’t quite the same
When I’m rushing on my run
And I feel just like Jesus’ son
And I guess I just don’t know
And I guess that I just don’t know[/b]
On the other hand, a lot of folks just don’t know. They just don’t know that.
It takes a busload of faith to get by.
And, hopefully, not all of it blind.
They listen to the music of idiots and amuse themselves with the sordid miseries of their businesses. They are not the things of angels or of any higher outpost that humanity might aspire to. Your loathsome vomitous businessman king is of the lowest order, his advisors crumbling mockeries of education driven by avarice. My love, dress them in the suits of mockery, and in their advanced state of stupidity and senility, burn and destroy them, so their ashes might join the compost which they so much deserve.
Of course they do produce all the things that we buy.
