Toads will be Violated

Kid; down by the creek, playing in the water,
along comes a Toad, humming Muddy Waters,
Toad says to the Kid, "Kid, have you got a quarter?",
Kid smiles at the Toad, says "Toad, you're out of order."
Pulls out a billy club, and holds it like a sword or
knife, says, "You got until the count of four or
five. Then if you're still here, you're slaughter.
I'll feed you to a cook, who's short order."
Toad looks at the Kid with a look that borders
on disbelief, then he follows the Kid's orders,
The Kid cries out "Stop!", and steps on Toad's hindquarters,
says, "I changed my mind, I'll become an extorter.
Go down to the bank, and get a money order.
I'm the sheriff 'round here, I'm the law and order.
If you're not back by five, I'll be sure'n make you holler."
Toad thought and thought, and wished he had a fly swatter,
but he didn't, and he knew bad luck was in his corner,
he was damned if he did, and damned if he sorta,
so he grabbed his sombrero and took off for the border.

Running with the Devil

I live my life like there's no tomorrow,
and all I've got, I had to steal,
Least I don't need to beg or borrow,
Yes I'm livin' at a pace that kills,

Runnin' with the devil!
Runnin' with the devil!
I'm gonna tell ya all about it...

I found the simple life ain't so simple,
When I jumped out, on that road,
I got no love, no love you'd call real,
Ain't got nobody, waitin' at home ,

Runnin' with the devil!
God damn it lady. You know I ain't lyin' to ya,
I'm only gonna tell you one time,
Runnin' with the devil!

You know I found the simple life,
Weren't so simple, no,
When I jumped out, on that road,
Got no love, no love you'd call real,
Got nobody, waitin' at home,

Runnin' with the devil
Hold on. Hold on, I'm runnin'!
Runnin' with the devil!
Come on, one more time!

Stack-o-lee

This here song is from back in the day,
Nineteen-hundred and sixty-two,
My woman put my black ass out in the cold,
I said, "baby why you leavin'?"
She said, "our love dun gone cold,"
Oh, I waded through water and I waded through mud,
Till I come to this place they call the Bucket of Blood.

You know that bartender gave me a dirty look and a dirty glass,
I said, "say muthafucka do you know who I am?"
He said, "hell no nigga I don't give a goddamn."

I reached down in my pocket and pulled out my shiny 44,
Shot that muthafucka twice,
He hit the goddamn floor,
'bout that time you coulda heard the drop of a pin,
That's when that bad muthafucka Billy Lyons walked in,

About that time a pimp eased up and turned out the lights,
That's when I had ol' Billy Lyons dead in my sights,
When the lights come back on ol' Billy gone to rest,
I put nine of my bullets in his muthafuckin' chest,
Yeah!

Quote of the Week

Listen up maggots.

You are not your job.
You are not how much money you have in the bank.
You are not the car you drive.
You are not the contents of your wallet.
You are not your fucking khakis.

You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.

You are not special.
You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake.
You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else.
We are all part of the same compost heap.

On a long enough timeline, everyone dies.

I want you to do me a favor.

Yeah, sure...

I want you to hit me as hard as you can.

What?... in the face?

Surprise me.

This is so fucking stupid.

Quote of the Day

I wanted to worship beauty. Sane reflection, and I realised that beauty costs, expense and effort. Even the wish to see the sun set on the Himalayas was a wish unfulfilled without a ticket to, boarding the very early morning train to, and the uphill climbing. Why trouble? Why not dream instead? Convinced, I provided me an arm chair, and induced experience. Thus I realized Beauty, and Beauty-experience. Such visions!
