I’ll be sullen and withdrawn
I’ll dwindle off into the twilight realm
Of my own secret thoughts!
I’ll lay on my back here ’til dawn,
In a semi-catatonic state
And dream of guitar notes
That would irritate
An executive kinda guy…
Well, i guess that one did the trick!
If they only coulda heard it,
Half-a-dozen of ‘em woulda strangled
While they was suckin’ on each others’

“outside now”
phrank zapper
