Hell You Say
Hell you say
So tell me really where is hell
Shall I, should I maybe tell
Things are rough in your perambulator
From time of birth, nips like a Gator
At 2 I’d lurk under a shack
Me and the pig were hard to track
A small boy tried to poke my eyes out
Pointy scissors had the lout
His momma ordered the attack
He jabbed and poked
But me pig fought back
Much squealing from me one true mate
The pig and I made our escape
Bully’s bashed me at the school
Dad taught me fisticuffs
At 6 straight lefts, and it was cool
I hammered a few scruffs.
Subtle hell is here with us
The preacher doesn’t know it
Crap gets a little deeper plus
Location, the suffering bit
