2024-??-??
I wasn't speaking French
I was speaking sailor
when I said "pardon my French"
I meant the Whaler
of a cuss I uttered
"microwave the bacon
drop a nuke on the station"
I also said "fuck"
get the situation?
I
the birds sing in the air
a fair harmony in treble clef
there are people milling around me
I'm beginning to think there's nothing left
every conversation is the same
man, isn't it good to be alive
I used to feel that way, but it's plain
to me they've been replaced by their eyes
pupils split by a collapsed iris
the back of their eyes gray clouds
iris collapsed by a yet unknown virus
I wear my Ray Bans year round
II
I've never seen someone who saw the same
upon grass so green, under a sky so blue
you'd think I wouldn't be the last to remain
I've shut myself in so my pupil's not two
inside my gray house so alone
an atonement for the sin of still living
I fear my sunglasses have cracked, the only ones I own
because I've been seeing double even in my prison
I
there's an island, far away
people visit on holiday
cats litter the streets and the shopkeeps smile
knowingly, refilling the feed every once in a while
ting-ting bells chime when a favorite appears
collared neck, very well-fed, and often of more years
the other cats shake in the wake of those peers
to whose opinion others listen and act upon what they hear
II
when long ago people called this island home
there was a man with a degree who could not leave life alone
I
recreational tracheotomy
how much will you lose. how fast will you bleed
you stole my hubcaps and my keys
let's see how quick I can amputate your knees
(mods, kill this man) in the forest at night
(is that an AK?) I hope the hunting's alright
(do you have a bandaid?) shoot to kill and kill to eat
(hey, did you hear that?) take the chaf from the wheat
II
faux professional animosity
is it worth the pay? steel and golden teeth?
you stole away my deepest fears
now I don't quite know if anything scares me
(call my lawyer) human complexes
(he might have a gun) simple solutions
(call the police) shoot to kill and kill to eat
(it can't happen to me) eliminate our honesty
you have problems with your self worth
you make five dollars in a dress and fifty in a skirt
but the money's not the issue
it's all those prying eyes cutting into you
cuz when the disco ball sends a beam of light through your skin
and the whole crowd gasps when they see your skeleton
and you look through the ceiling and know you've lost all hope
it's all for capital
television static's been in front of my eyes
every single second of my secondary life
I've been living so nonlinear babe I'm out my fucking mind
when you killed me for a dollar
did you haggle at the offer
or just couldn't then be bothered
to hold onto me any tighter
when you were strangling me tighter
did you want it to be over
or did you relish and feel sober
at the thought of causing torture

kill like you've never killed before this time
penta plus penta die like it's no crime
die like you've never died before this time
yet another sacrifice
have you ever given so much for so
little a result so subtle, why you don't know
have you ever seen so much hate in the
arms of those you idolize
I spent a year on an alien world
so similar to my own
I met fellow humans
and leaened to call this place home
it too had seasons
red, green, orange leaves
summer and winter
as the weather changed, it changed me
by the time I to go back left
all the friends I'd left were dead
and I keep running down dead ends
you know, you can't go home again
I
CHORUS
I said yes to a taste of Heaven
and was fed from a tube of love
I sank so far down into my skin
oh, what a wonderful drug
V1
"do you have a death wish"
I just came here for the scene
posers digging into me
like I don't get it
programmer by the day
push to mainline in the night
milliliters marked in gray
but we measure by the vibe
II
C
I said yes to a taste of Heaven
my "friends" say I've had enough
I can't party 'til it gets under my skin
God, what a powerful drug
V2
sometimes I feel
like a grenade without my pin
after the rave it's poisoning
my blood and I kneel
bowing down to the pain
in my bed spending the day
my toxic tongue and angered brain
I think next time I'll refrain
III
BRIDGE
oh, but I can't stop
feel it eating me alive
I wake and can't open my eyes
because it burns so much, the light
oh, but I won't stop
veins have swelled out of my arms
face's been shaped by all the harm
I've slept through all my alarms
CHORUS
I said yes to a taste of Heaven
and filled my cup with this horrible draught
I can't stop thinking about getting my next fix
then I'll party 'til I drop
I
when Louie died, he was 29
cried as he put the barrel to his head
for me to arrive and take down the two guys
surrounding him in a farm shed
when Paulie kicked the bucket
and hung from his girl's locket
I was at the market
oblivious to his end
II
me and my skeleton crew
the graves who I visit on holiday
I miss my youthful skeleton crew
and the lads I used to call
my friends
I
taxi driver driving
in a world driven mad
by compulsive consumption
A/B tested in a lab
all these kids on their phones
in the backseat of her cab
they say you ain't done nothing
if you ain't been called a red
Susan's comrades did something
they still worked to death
Susan met a man
in automotive automation
II
- self driving cards
trying to replace public transit
she hated his job
and when she drove he couldn't stand it
now, you might think such a relationship wouldn't last
but why book a cab when you have the Uber app?

now, we've all heard the story
of the dueler, toodle-oo
he'd draw his guns 'fore you could head "one"
and man, he'd toodle you
now, what they might not tell you is
'twass a lass named toodle-dee
who whipped out her pistol
faster'n the toot of a whistle
that brought him misery
now, down at There Saloon where Hugh was the bartender,
in waked Toodle-oo and Hugh said dude don't you dare do
but toodle-oo wanted to toodle you-know-who straight back to sender

# apt install mako-notifications
$ mako
Didn't work. What is mako?
<https://github.com/emersion/mako>
Okay, I have to put `exec mako` in my sway(5). Then relogin.
It works.
