When Your Manic

 When Your Manic

 

When you got the right to choose the baby’s gonna lose      

We’re free in America to pick our own blues                       

The comic book guy will cheat you when you’re high         

From infinity to here we’re all going to die                          

 

You’ll panic when your manic watch you’re right

You’ll panic when your manic here comes the fight

In between Thorazine and the pop scene there’s the pill

You’ll panic when your manic and make the kill

 

Going crazy you ain’t lazy soaring in the sky

Giving it all away cause money’s just a lie

In my mind I find a reason to be kind

We got pop stars with guitars the blind leading the blind

 

You’ll panic when your manic watch you’re right

You’ll panic when your manic here comes the fight

In between Thorazine and the pop scene there’s the pill

You’ll panic when your manic and make the kill

 

Silver bracelets are the reward after the grand chase

I was only trying to save the human race

Into the blue ambulance taking a short ride

Playing the game blame the shame for crucifying my pride

 

You’ll panic when your manic watch you’re right

You’ll panic when your manic here comes the fight

In between Thorazine and the pop scene there’s the pill

You’ll panic when your manic and make the kill

 

Tony came by to say that’s the man

Chaos and anarchy my only plan

I promised to be faithful and true

Oh Sylvia darling I still love you

 

Writing lyrics so I can get on the radio

Every day I say life’s a radical show

Ken and Lauren they had themselves a baby boy

I sing to the king it brings rivers of endless joy

 

You’ll panic when your manic watch you’re right

You’ll panic when your manic here comes the fight

In between Thorazine and the pop scene there’s the pill

You’ll panic when your manic and make the kill

Daedalus

 Daedalus

FAWM # 23 

Hey Daedalus your black shoes are shiny but you got holes in your soles

And your Mercedes Benz don’t drive it just sort of rolls

Women well you got lovely ladies of every kind

But a good one with an honest tongue they’re so hard to find

 

Daedalus tell me what you gonna do

When daddy writes his will and it don’t include you

Look up Daedalus the sky is blue

You reap what your sow those words are true

 

If you meet the green dragon in the dungeon best give him all your gold

Dress fine march in line good fascists do what they are told

Sipping Champaign in vain still you complain about the rain

I could tell you the truth but you won’t let me explain

 

Daedalus tell me what you gonna do

When daddy writes his will and it don’t include you

Look up Daedalus the sky is blue

You reap what your sow those words are true

 

Front row at the show but you’re upset you’re not back stage

Like a simmering pot of soup you’re in a constant rage

Oh Daedalus we’re told to look out for number one

But if you do when the night comes you’ll be all alone

 

Daedalus tell me what you gonna do

When daddy writes his will and it don’t include you

Look up Daedalus the sky is blue

You reap what your sow those words are true

 

Playing funky sax you can relax

You heard a rumor of Happy Jack

Daedalus don’t worry I got your back

The truth is different from the facts

 

Winter comes with blasé doldrums year after year

We are intimate strangers close but yet never near

The Earth keeps spinning the devil’s grinning evil is winning

But don’t worry Casey’s at bat in the final inning

 

Daedalus tell me what you gonna d

When daddy writes his will and it don’t include you

Look up Daedalus the sky is blue

You reap what your sow those words are true
