The Ballet

Walking down the sunset stars are in the street

One

pocket full of posies

One pocket full of meat

I carved out my intestines for you to peruse

Hung up and decorating an abandoned zoo

Will you take me to the ballet I

Want to watch the girls I love to see them sway

I cannot breathe with you so close

Step away

Decompose

Ashes to ashes along the gravy train

I

can’t help I was born with worms in my brain

A penny for your thoughts and a dime for your mistakes

A quarter for your prayers for me for heaven’s sake

Will you take me to the ballet I

Want to watch the girls I love to see them sway

I cannot breathe with you so close

Step away

Decompose
