Hi
John Frost

hieeieeeeeee
welcome eek
twist twist

elephants walked in my jello again last night
footprints gave them away
but mommy i don't want to go to europe
shut up, son and keep swimming
red nylons were in that year
JFK bled out in her lap
the rubber ducky was his

John John going to grow up and die
like a K
JF
RF
ML
salute the bones carried by.

I want to hold your hand
AM tinny screechers and
girls girls girls screaming in the street
street talk asphalt, cement and skirts
get a haircut hippy get a job
fuck you man get a joint
ain't it a riot

Booooo
eeek
just let me finish
booooooooooo
but what about love?

traded it in for a wife with a job
bought the house with the picket fence
replaced it with a wall
bought a car 2 cars and a lotta lotta
TV's but there's more to life
kids and a wife and a pot bellied cat

an elephant in the white house
footprints in the jello
blood in the neighbor's yard
a tv in every house
a computer in every room
a death in every family
old bones die
weren't they wonderful people
I certainly am

shut up son, and keep swimming
the world is funnier now
and the ocean beneath the
flotsam and the jetsam and the
plastic stuff is deep
lovely, dark, and deep
and there are souls to save
before you sleep
just ask jesus

i hear he's pissed off
and coming back but then
what about Paxil or just good old
time lithium
we'll build him a nice place with
benches for everyone
and the streets of heaven are
paved with gold.

eeek.
unplugged
thank you thank you
silence
footprints in the jello
the end is an elephant joke.
