Prisoner



Locked up all day.
Can't find my way.
Grinding into existence
In this life.

Bearly important,
Without a clue,
Flush the toilet
And go to the zoo.

Without a sound,
In the room,
Can't push the rock
From my tomb.

Broken window,
Shattered glass,
Wrecked the car
Then ran out of gas.

Kick that chair.
I don't care.

Sweep up the pieces of my life.
Kill yourself with a butterknife.
Shave the beard
And you'll be weird.
What'd I say?
You're gonna pay.
Soon as it happens to you.
You will never be true.

Bounce around on a spring.
Scratch the paint off your diamond ring.
Break your leg.
Go to jail.
Don't pass go.
Ha ha, you'll fail!

Pour some salt
On your wounds.
Eat some cereal
With some prunes.

Peel the skin
Off of your face.
Catch a cold
But lose the race.

Clear your plate
And go outside.
See someone
And run and hide.
