Let's Start a Noise Band With the Mailman

*Let's Start a Noise Band with the Mailman, and We'll Call Ourselves: 
Our Noise Band with the Mailman Featuring 'Me' 
- We Can All Take Turns Being  'Me' Until Someone Gets It Right*


Here's something to consider: 
We can all make up our own words together, 
And then forget 
We were ever friends with each other. 

After our amicable divorce, 
Our vocabulary would become a dead language 
- It sounds crazy; 
But it's even easier than I make it look...
...I'm not very good 
At convincing people 
I can make anything look easy 
- I 'm just naturally difficult...
....Whenever I haven't gone crazy.

It struck me as being absurd...
...That is of course, if it is true, what they say:
"The skull of James Dean haunts the dream of the teen." 
Then this must logically mean: 
"The skull of Michael Jackson 
Haunts the dream of the pre-teen"...Think about it, please...
...That was a Rudimentary Peni joke; 
I guess you had to be there...

I'm sure John lawless has told you by now:
I'm selling limited edition colored vinyl jokes 
(or I will be that is) now that I've said it, 
I have no other choice,
But to follow through with my lofty commitments...
 ...Please, don't eat my colored vinyl jokes, 
Unless you're a performance artist, 
Because then, 
We can eat them together on YouTube
 - I just don't want anyone 
Eating my colored vinyl jokes the wrong way:
On toast; toast is really no way to enjoy my jokes...
....I'm not even kidding! - Just ask John lawless!!!

I'm a one man Surrealist 'comedy troupe' 
- And there's nothing too funny about that...
...I really don't understand the appeal 
For stand-up comedians: 
What's so stand-up about comedians anyway? 
Comedians never send me Christmas cards
- Even my dentist sends me Christmas cards, 
And I hate that guy...Maybe?
Even more than John lawless hates me?
...I haven't received money 
Inside a Christmas card in years: 
Why do grandparents and Lemmy 
Have to die before us? 
Life isn't fair! 
- Why won't John lawless
Acknowledge my worth as a human being? 
It's all I'm asking for 
This Holiday Season...
...Just wait and see,
This will be the year,
Everyone but me, 
Finally gets world peace....

"Why do grandparents and Lemmy Have to die before us?" --Because all good things must come to an end. And if you ask the grandparents, they'll likely chose that order. But Lemmy now - that is a dour pain to bide, more than the universe can handle really. I don't think we're going to make it.
