Retirement

Retirement is death
That was the plan
At old age, do meth
Everything else is a scam
But found a shop
Down the road
That became the backdrop
Now my future has been sowed
Nostalgic wieners
Portrait of a smoking man
Rug of the devil
It’s all going to plan
An ironic icon
A portrait of czech rocks
An amber cat
Who the fuck buys stock
I’ll act like frasier
And look like him too
By the time I retire
The third frasier reboot
will be in season 2
Nostalgic wieners
Portrait of a smoking man
Rug of the devil
It’s all going to plan
It turns I’m
A little Tart
For something called
Local art
The value goes up
All the time
I smile while I sup
Knowing it’s all mine
Nostalgic wieners
Portrait of a smoking man
Rug of the devil
It’s going to plan
An ironic icon
A portrait of czech rocks
An amber cat
Who the fuck buys stocks

Hot Summer
02:31

Summer in the city
Sitting on the floor
No reprieve in sight
Sweat streaming from every pore
Hiding in the bathroom
From activities I hate
Reading shampoo bottles
They think I’m in a state
The room in total darkness
Shades drawn down to the floor
The one eyed cat is panting
This shit I abhor
I’ll try anything once
No matter how dumb
Hot tea doesn’t work
I’m beat red as a bum
Pools! (are full of chemicals)
Lakes! (have biting eels)
I need to cool down somehow
Mentally I am melting steel

Going Out
01:43
|
|||
|
I guess I’ll go out
4 5 and 6 euro beers
These taste like shit
Why are these everywhere
I’d rather split
And drink at home
With a shelf full of liquor
And a keg full of beer
Freezer full of frozen food and jam and ice
Beyond meats and meats and meats and meats and meats
Save a few good euros
Maybe I’ll go out

Things Along the River
02:37
|
|||
|
Downriver from town
Cast the fish hook down
A bottle cap screws off
Glug glug without a scoff
Pull up a fat boy carp
Like an angel playing the harp
Two hobos share a hug
Take a celebratory slug
The proper word is unhoused
Or that’s what I espoused
City river Sustenance fishing
The perfect combo, nothing is missing
How will they cook it
Where will they go
Will they have sides?
Or open a bottle of bordeaux
Upriver two tweens cry laugh
I guessed it was some gaffe
But it was only a crow
Whatever it did I don’t know
See a crow, flash a smile
They’ll remember for quite a while
They can solve complex tasks
They won’t recognize you in mask
Under the bridge there’s an open trunk
Maybe someone preparing to dunk?
Nope, it’s a friend of mine
Buying discount beer outside
The grocery store is right there
By the river taxes are laissez faire
How will they cook it
Where will they go
Will they have sides?
Or open a bottle of bordeaux
Just one year
along the river
The amount of things I’ve seen
This is only a sliver

To the South
02:26
|
|||
|
It’s not a mountain it’s a big hill
Gather water from a spring
I’ll drink my fill
Stop for Breakfast at a big egg
I want a piece of cake
Don’t make me beg
A praise for Peko
candy, drinks or coins are what he prefers
Fresh made bread and cheese
A toast to all and good things can occur
The border feels close
A quick hike
I don’t have to drink grolsch
Which I like
A bog walk to a crater
Praise Satan
He’ll Attack churches later
Spend a white night
In a witch hut
Bottle of handsa handmade
Uncut
Spread the word by mouth
Praise Peko
Drive to the wild south
Breakdown
Devil bakes bread
meteors overhead
Rain and fog normally
Trees as far as the eye can see
Stu Hamm was here
Probably again next year
Coffee terminal every day
Cheese rolls they give away
I found a bullet in the dirt
Is that a bear? I’m on alert
Follow tracks down the trail
The border feels close
A quick hike
I don’t need to use grosz
Which I like
A bog walk to a crater
Praise Satan
He’ll Attack churches later
Spend a white night
In a witch hut
Bottle of handsa handmade
Uncut
Spread the word by mouth
Praise Peko
Drive to the wild south
