i’ve got them ‘cemetery blues’…
i ain’t quite cut out for this ‘cemetery life’…
all decked out in my sedentary shoes…
still carving my slice of paradise…
(but prepared to lose)

(into ‘joe cocker’ / ‘traffic’ jam)
(*get ready*)
the drugs don’t ‘do it’ for me no more…
PEER PRESSURE
(much more pressure than before…)
pile it on…
(settle my scores with the carve of a well-sharpened knife…
(intp “midnight special”)
(into traffic’s “low spark of high-heeled boys”)
