Altered States

Altered States Woke up this morning, I was lying on the floor The windows were all covered, bars upon the door People came inside I said,” What is this all for?” They said, “You need your medicine!” After taking the medicine, I walked on down the hall Comic book writing was all over the walls Grandfather clock was talking with a drawl What he said I don’t remember I came to a room where Nuns were all tripping The Priests were all stoned, the Altar boys were dipping I could not tell what the Bishops were all sipping The Pope he was just lying on the floor Went back to my room, thought it would be safe The people there were talking about how it was too late They said, “Come in we do not have long to wait He is coming for dinner!”
