I'm a minimalist
I drink my bourbon straight
I'm a minimalist
And I never work late
I'm a minimalist
No sugar no cream
I'm a minimalist
I have black and white dreams
I'm a minimalist
Like a Trappist monk
I'm a minimalist
Got rid of all my junk
I'm a minimalist
I believe in one God
I'm a minimalist
I got a Buddha in my yard
I'm a minimalist
So get straight to the point
I'm a minimalist
Don't you lace my joint
I'm a minimalist
I'll trade you more for less
I'm a minimalist
I like a girl with small breasts
I'm a minimalist
Still listen to the Ramones
I'm a minimalist
I have sex alone
I'm a minimalist
Always wear the same pants
I'm a minimalist
I do a one legged dance
I got 'em
Under glass
He's buggin'
Running fast
I flip him
On his back
Flightless wings
Red or black
Catching roaches
I beg their pardon
As I release them
In the Garden
I toss him
From the glass
He tumbles
In the grass
Goes running
To the shrine
Lord Buddha
His light shines
All creatures
Want to live
Death is not
Yours to give
Respect life
In all forms
Mice bugs and
Even worms
Compassion
It's not hard
Put 'em outside
In the yard
Open minds
Open sores
You gave me mine
But you'll get yours
You said free love
Would set us free
So why does it hurt
Every time I pee
So many girls
So many boys
Black rubber sheets
And plastic toys
You gave me mine
But you'll get yours
Open minds
Open sores
Headlights out, won't start
Tire's flat, mirror's cracked
Mirko's @#$% car
What'd you expect for $1,200 cheapskate?
I didn't buy I just helped translate
It's Mirko's @#$% car
It's not my
fault
It's not my fault
Mirko's @#$% car
Had to have it
Can't take a bus or a train
Now it's falling apart
And I get blamed
Mirko's @#$% car
Kroger's right across
The God damn street
Can he walk?
No, like he got no feet
He loads the car
With Bosnian men
They buy their smokes
And ride home, again
In Mirko's @#$% car
Buy junk
Get junk
Buy junk
Get junk
Like Mirko's @#$% car
You bought a drawer full of new panties
And I should have had a clue
That you found another man
And he's already loving you
You done your face up with makeup
You say you're only working late
But you're glowing like a schoolgirl
Going out on her first date
New Panties
You never wore them for me
Fine and fancy
Made in London or Paris
Does he peel them from your body
And gently fold them on the bed?
Or does he grip them in his teeth
Savagely tearing them to shreds?
While I sit at home alone
Slowly opening your drawers
Marveling at the pretty colors
And soft fabric of your
New Panties
I met her on the internet
She wore prison blue
She sends me lots of photographs
She got a teardrop tattoo
And I can't wait
Till
2010
When she's released
From the women's pen
Pen pals in prison
They're a captive audience
They
only ask to be forgiven
For a felonious offense
So, she wrote a few worthless checks
Is that such a crime?
She's worth so much more than that
And now we're both doing time
Sometimes I feel jealous and mean
Cause her cellmate Looks like James Deans
She says It's different inside
But it still hurts my pride
Pen pals in prison
They're on the internet
So if you're lonely
There's a pen pal
In prison
Waiting
For you
I love ya baby
And I won't let go
Ain't gonna leave me
Like ya done before
Ya can't run with
Chains around your feet
I got ya caged
Just like a parakeet
We share a love
That only death can part
So if ya ever have
A change of heart
Arrangements always
Can be made
Don't know the hour
But I know the day
Lonely rivers flow
So damn the pain
I'll never let you
go
Love chained
Here come the doctor
So stick out your arm
I swore an oath
To never do ya harm
So make a fist and
Show me that blue vein
This love I give
Is gonna ease your pain
Ya look so peaceful
Lyin' by my side
I need some lovin'
Open up your eyes
Ya say ya can't
But I know ya will
It makes me nervous
When ya lie so still
Ya walked in beauty
Like the night before
Ya woke this mornin'
Shackled to the floor
At noon I dressed ya
In a gown of white
At six ya raged
Against the dyin' light
Tonight I'm singing ya
This lullaby
But don't go gently
Cause the sun will rise
And I'll bring presents
Till ya room is full
With more flowers
Than a funeral
You got a funny way of showing
Your love and tenderness
You cheated, you lied
And then you
left I'm sunk like the Titanic
While your climbing Everest
You cheated, you lied
And then you left
I'll follow you to Istanbul
Track you down in Budapest
You cheated, you lied
And then you left
Lonely nights
Lonely days
Ain't no one here
To take your place
Cuts like a knife
Be not afraid
I open the freezer
And I see your face
I'm recklessly abandoned
I'm high on crystal meth
You cheated, you lied
And then you left
They should elect you president
You're weak and dishonest
You cheated, you lied
And then you left
May your children turn upon you
May your home be repossessed
You cheated, you lied
And then you left
