The Chucko Children
roller derby brains passing into the steel mainspring
if we eat these slivers of veal paradox and watercress
the chucko children will slip beyond the sly pastures
they will forever traverse the bone rub badlands
the golden hard-on matinees, the grinding piano teeth
tearing it up, absorbing the pretenses, the stoney soufflés
the moulin rouge’ side glances dripping from the stars
now it’s clinging to your skin like jellyfish regurgitations
the simplex television people rattle chains during halftime
roller derby brains passing through the perforations
the backwash inseminations from a thousand lost nights
the dusty facades of made-up motel girls smoking fear sticks
hey you, yeah you, i got ten bucks in my pocket all for you
maybe you and me can test the winds and apply the dance
we can slip beyond the sly pastures, the stoney soufflés
the war still rages, even as the comatose night sleeps on
We can hear the chucko children tearing it up grinding it out,
bringing it on, again and again inside the steel mainspring
Maybe we can write , a song together , about a planet of lezbeins ,
Hoo only wair leather . And thay only get praygnant , by artifishul inseminations ,
And thay give all thair male-children , sex change operations !
Now even thoe the planet of lezbeins is way out in space ,
The planet of lezbeins is still a very nice place !
That is , of course , until the day , win the sperm bank ran dry ,
Now it looks like the planet of lezbeins mite die .
On the planet of lezbeins , everyone lives 4-ever .
As long as thay stay virjins , thale be dieing never .
So thay decided 2 send sum astro lezbeins out in 2 space ,
2 send more sperm home , from sum other place . And
Now the planet if lezbeins , is safe again , Atleast until the next time ,
The sperm bank runs dry again. And then thale send more astro lezbeins
Out in 2 space , 2 bring more sperm home , from sum other place !...
they did not scatter and fill the earth
feasting on wine break-
ing the promises
the tower of solidarity and pride
new tongues born now we ar
scattered governments born
to destroy the masses me-
thodically war and famine
artificial inseminations
they feast on their ps-
eudo securities ag-
ainst death
