From the Litter Bin

Under three, and under seven Under the ace of spades Lies a land I’d like to land on But I live in Hades To get out the easy way Take the shady train And I ride it day to day Knowing its in vain I can make a change to go Boatman gets his fee But its not the shore I know Where he’s taking me I am speaking to the wall To the corner of my room If one day the ceiling falls It will be my tomb An alternative to get To the better world But I know it will upset From the news I’ve heard It deceives the same old way Like they do in Hades So why worry one would say Laughing in my face Under three, and under seven Under the ace of spades There it is, a land of Heaven But I live in Hades.
