Dates Paroles

The shortest day in the year
Daylight savings, federal elections
I need new glasses with thicker lenses
Winter fell on me so quickly now I need new socks
Suddenly I can’t remember what summer smelled like
Like a school bus buzz

Drive in the country, I see the cows
They seem happy eating grass
They have four stomachs but no weekend
When does their weekend? On a meat hook
All the insects live life quickly
They get the point – get to the point!
Live in the wild, sing in the night time
They don’t take up so much space

I need a date, to keep me going
To work towards, to see an end
To light the tunnel, I see a pinhole
It’s just a train light up ahead When it’s empty will there be another?
I need new plates, a dining table
I want home dinners, I eat out everynight
I eat sushi, I eat souvlaki
I’m sick of eating my food in a roll
I want roast chicken, fillet steak
I want it rare to taste the blood
we need more hangings
& public stonings, crucifixions
good ways to kill the time
