  • Little ‘Ol Me

    I’m sort of like a god,But a little like a tree.Won’t you come and take a gander, girl,At little ‘ol me.There’s a gap between my teeth andSome webs between my toes,And I’ve got unbalanced eyesAnd a crooked ‘ol nose.But appearances are nothing.You should see what’s in my soul.

    Once upon a moonlit night, A creature crooned and filled with fright The audience that gathered there To hear the beast congest the air With songs of lust of blood of men. The beast began to sing again. And all the children’s eyes went dark As parents covered them in shock. And who so braved…

  • Juice

    They are taking US missiles and they’re dropping them on tents.That’s what the fucking Jews are doin’. What you think they meant? “I didn’t mean to hit you when they showed me where you were.” “I can’t really say, Yaweh. That day was such a blur.” Ten thousand excuses their religion gives to them.To be…
