Squirrely

The penultimate hideaway hardly hidden 
Drought, then flash flooding 
Cradle of ever adolescent id not fitting them 
Dusk smokeshows the yard and sky 
and the oblivious neighbors 
walking without dogs 
like they've settled for inferior children 

Right now, I warn, my tongue is loosened 
by so many substances in pursuit 
of squirrely savant vision 
about dictatorship's greatest weakness 
or who knows, maybe its secret sweetness 
It sure has plenty of folks believing in it 

About the rabbit's foot  
psychometrically calling "Carl did this!"
About love and how we'll 
eventually live it 
But it's just got me belligerent, a little bit 

Comic books
Hot rails 
Who'd have thought the two 
would go so poorly together 

A raccoon rattles in the hideaway's trashcan 
set out just so for the garbage man 

I don't know what the point is of anything 
It's coming out a little bit garbled, man 

But give up your intractable error 
Find a dog to walk and you'll forget 
what ever even appealed to you about 
having children 

Not to be impolite 
but they just crap and cry 
When you know I'm right 
listen
