YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT I’VE BEEN THROUGH BRO
There were lead singers everywhere
oh God, they got such gorgeous white cocks
Lighten up muchacho
gotta keep the customers happy
while your head’s in the stocks
but I pick melons now
and all the girls in the back of the pick up go
rapido, rapido, rapido, rapido
Give me rap songs that make me puke blood
Give me a new love who looks like the old love
Give me an overized novelty T-Shirt that says
You don’t know what I’ve been through, Bro
Evelyn in the psych ward used to go
“I lost my only child
and that’s the worst pain
you could ever feel
and that’s all I’m gonna say about that”
(Don’t take her out of my life)
My roommate tried to slit his wrist
with a plastic fork he sharpened and bent
A millionaire blew hard in my face
and told me he had to pay my rent
There was a young girl in a wheelchair
I thought the man that visits was her dad
It was her pimp she was married to
who threw her out a window
They took her braids out before she went to prison
but I could still hear her singing
“Why are you so sad?”
she said
“Why are you so sad?”
Give me rap songs that make me puke blood
Give me a new love who looks like the old love
Give me an oversized novelty T-shirt that says
You don’t know what I’ve been through, Bro
Evelyn in the psych ward used to go
“I lost my only child
and that’s the worse pain
you could ever feel
and that’s all I’m gonna say about that”

POLE DANCING 4 FUNERALS
It was a great time for sci fi
It was a great time for power tools
Me and the kids hunt wild dogs
through the ashes of public schools
This used to be a Wal Mart
I used to pick the condoms off the rack
It was a great time for mattresses
in basements that smell like crack
in basements that smell like crack
It was a great time in the TV room
in the Albany Med Psych Ward
me and the boys all laugh
when the cop finds his wife’s head
wrapped in cardboard
This used to be a band in a room
now I just sing out of tune
If you squint hard enough the fluorescent lights
look just that damn full moon
look just that damn full moon
Turn this one up at the strip club
after my funeral
When you’re drunk wet parking lots
look impossibly beautiful
High falls, New Paltz,
Livingston, Kingston,
Cohoes,Cairo,
Coxsackie, Poughkeepsie,
Stripper Names, Fallen Rain,
it all sounds the same
It’s the same sad music to me
It was a great time for Klonopin
Ketamine, Adderall, Vicodin
Hope my kid never tell’s her friends
Dad’s gone he tried to kill himself again
This used to be my childhood home
now it’s a Dunkin’ Donuts
used to sleep right there with a purple raccoon
next to the bowl of cigarette butts
next to the bowl of cigarette butts
Turn this one up at the strip club
after my funeral
When you’re drunk wet parking lots
look impossibly beautiful
Pall Mall, menthoyl,
Pueblo, Marlboro,
Spirits, Maverick,
Kools, Camel Light,
Newport, Lucky Strike,
they all sound like mhmmhm sha nah nah
I was trying to get some sleep in this ER hallway
when two twins walked in, hollering
One said “I’m alright”
The other said “April fools!”
and I said “This must be my life. Shit, this must be my life.”
Maybe it’s your life too
High falls, New Paltz,
Livingston, Kingston,
Cohoes, Cairo,
Coxsackie, Poughkeepsie,
Stripper Names, Fallen Rain,
it all sounds the same
It’s the same sad music to me

I was a Teenage Anna Nicole Smith
making out with Death in a parked car
Now I’m just the old guy blowing the leaves
on your tennis court with nasty scars
Hey, let’s do acid on election day
you can be the Queen of Guantanamo Bay
and I’ll be the shape shifting lizard Congressman Spy
The truth is stranger than the high
Ralph jumped that fence
into that old past tense
He is, now he just was
but I miss him here now
and I don’t wanna say anymore
because it’ll just fuck up my buzz
Hey, I’ll be Ralph, you can be me
We’ll blow every red light doing ninety
Driving an old Porsche, listening to Lennon
I hope there’s no LA in heaven
I’d say one LA is bad enough
When the scars on my face heal
I’mma finally pick up my kid
from the McDonalds’ where the kids make-out and vape
Gonna tell her that you can’t really know anyone ever
(not even yourself)
It’s kind of terrifying
It’s kind of great
Hey, I know your dad would be proud of you
when I feel this lost I feel him too
Everything is beginning
even the endings are beginning again now
I’ll always be a Teenage Anna Nicole Smith
watching the people drift
in and out
