take the object whole
there's nothing else but halves and fractions
and who wants that?
play with the skinny foal
scrape amniotic sac off his tiny back
build a model of the titanic and sink it
then drag it back
i am the king of every single thing that no one wants to know
i lit a fire and fell asleep, and it killed everyone i know
and now i'm poking embers with sticks
blowing on the tiny coals
i lit a fire and fell asleep and it killed everyone i know
there's squirrels in my home
eating my food and acting like cuter rats
i'll chase them out alone
close windows to keep out the stealing rodents
and i hope that everything they have is gone and they don't come back
i am the king of every single thing that no one wants to know
i lit a fire and fell asleep, and it killed everyone i know
and now i'm poking embers with sticks
blowing on the tiny coals
i lit a fire and fell asleep and it killed everyone i knoooooooooooooooooooooow
