Subject: Days of Unbliss (Collab w/ Slim Jim Longfoot)

Vanity, Insanity, Calamity, Profanity
it all sounds the same halfway through a stiff drink
easing the pain, bones aches because of the coming rain
rusty locks corrode and keys lost
grasshoppers chirp and crickets hop
puberty long gone, no more pimples to pop
it is what it is, let the doctor tell it

Vanity, Insanity, Calamity, Profanity
That ever-present cancer called, Humanity
Color between the lines, make your palette pretty
in the Silver City, beauty's alive but it's thrifty
Did you miss me, do you remember that guy?
The one that wanted a windowseat and a long goodbye
we like to hallow the ground and sample the sky

What I would give to sample the sky,
almost as tempting as eating blackberry pie
Sweetness on my lips, blissful as the girl I first kissed
as sour as my feelings after shooting the shot that missed I think back in times of yesteryear,
if I knew what I know now
would I have stayed home or left like the proverbial cow
I cuss, I fuss, am I insane or just vain
One of the four, I hope to be no more

I remember the last shot, you should've passed the ball
I remember that girl, she'd compare me to you when I'd call
Jimi Superstar bodychecked me 'cause I stepped on his J's in study hall
Could've pulled a Mac & Devin, guess he'd be the cooler one
or like Dylan & Eric, run up in the school and shoot it up
Bowling for blackberry pie, dying of Varsity blues
Staring at life or death but this time I can't choose
overdosing with the Prom Queen that used to be my Muse
the story of my life, tell me, would it get rave reviews?

Rave reviews in another 50 years
Future historians researching and drying their tears

The sound of these words echo through the ages
as they flipped through old webpages
like old time clippings and pix of Snoop tripping off that weed,
then they proceed to dwell deeper and deeper
'til they reach the climax that no other poets deliver
What a shiver. Shiver so cold it's icy to the thought of it.
These tales of unhappy days sends a different message to the future
We're not Fred and Ben..Savage boys meeting the world or wondering throughout the years,
or even grumpy old men chugging down beers
and yelling NORM like we're on the set of Cheers
We are survivors of the days of unbliss,
a period of history that should be,
but will NOT be...missed.
