REVOLVER
His spit is worth more than her work Pass tha purse to the pugilists He's a prizefighter He bought rings and he owns kin And now he's swingin' And now he's the champion Hey revolver, don't mothers make Good fathers ? Revolver A spotless domain Hides festering hopes she's certain there's more Pictures of fields without fences Her body numbs as he approaches the door Hey revolver, don't mothers make Good fathers ? Revolver
SNAKECHARMER
Satellites are mirrors and a man without a home A horse and a rider and a clever cunning killer Silent in error and vocal in spotlights Lying always sucking on a bottle of that sweet Indulgent fluid Oh greed oh yes Your friendship as a fog That disappears when the wind redirects You, yes you A father's expectations, soul soaked in spit and Urine And you gotta make it where To a sanctuary that's only a fragile American Hell An empty dream A selfish, horrific vision Passed on like the deadliest of viruses Crushin' you So have no illusions boy A vomit up all ideals and serve Sleep and wake, and serve Don't think just wake and serve Your friendship is a fog That disappears when the wind redirects You interested in you, interested in you Interested in you, interested in you Interested in you, interested in you
