Looking down
On my new town, Where they obey. A penny for a pound. Now I can lord My just reward. You are my crew. My petting zoo. You'll shine my shoes And meet my needs, By my own rules And your good deeds. Although, another Bigger fish May swim around A bigger dish, I wont settle, Yet still I choose To test my mettle. You win, you lose. You will obey. I'll show my force. A brand new day, Back on the horse. While I still keep My head held high, It's me you'll follow Not the other guy. 2/23/26 ZONE S3E28 Today, they've come.
We've come undone. Another sunny day, In total disarray. "Please don't be alarmed" "We mean you no harm." 'Don't misunderstand. We've got your upper hand." "Your lives have left you dry. Your politics have gone awry. Destruction, famine, desolation, Have come to be divided nations.' "We bring you succulent, sweet relief And to tender your age old beef. The pressure has been building up, It might just need a quarter cup Of seasoned experts at the helm. Try not to become overwhelmed. Change of scenery. Change of venue. Come to find what's on the menu." "Our flight crew will be coming 'round To bring your trays once we're off the ground. Rest assured, you'll be just fine. With light risotto and glass of wine." "Let's not panic or lose our grace. Things are done here in good taste. Off we go, into the yonder. What's in store. No time to flounder." "A banquet waits that suits you better And fills you up so moist and tender. We're here to dress you and press yours skirts. After dinner, just desserts." 2/8/26 ZONE S3E24 Roll away the silver stone.
This soul been dancin in my bones. Right is wrong, when wrong is right. Lick a stick of dynamite. Comfort, honey, I've got a mind To make you happy and treat you kind. Jeff, my darling, is this real? You've always known just how I feel. Seen things on the other side. The road is long and the water is wide. I came back here to be with you. Find comfort in this life I knew. We'll plant a seed and watch it grow. How it's done is what you know. Across the threshold I'll carry you And work the land till day is through. Even if what they say is true, It won't take much to juggle two Lives beyond and one before. Little difference, just a little more Life to stretch across the road, Paying back the debt we've owed. Don't be frightened or be afraid. There's satin pillows in beds we've made. White for me and pink for you. Flowers rise where they never grew. Peaches, plums and nectarines. You won't believe the things I've seen. 2/6/26 ZONE S3E23 This will change your tune.
You'll bay and bark now at the moon. Look beyond the bevelled mirror. Your lover's eyes explain it clearer. What I'd really like to know. Why you're here, when you should go. While I'm laughing in your face, Your pickled hate belies your grace. Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Moe Who will be the Best in Show? Behind the masks up on the wall, Powdered smiles begin to fall. Come now, darling, don't be shy. We need to find the reasons why Im a devil and you're a saint. Oh so queer, not quite so quaint. Itsy, Bitsy, Spider, Fly I know you are, but what am I? Hocus Pocus, Allah Kazam. Another lie is what I am. So much easier to be upfront. I'm an ass and your'e a cunt. Lonely, loopy, longing lives. Silver spoons with sharpened knives. A simple tune to bend an ear And play a song that calls your fear. For just a moment, we now should sing. All true colors have pleasant rings. Like an old piano, we've all been played. Our coins do jingle in this petty arcade. 2/3/26 ZONE S3E22 Let's kick the tires,
When our love expires And check the oil In fondness unspoiled. Marie, Marie, I hope you'll agree. Good friends till the end. Fun times round the bend. Let's go for a spin. Can't lose if we win. Together forever. C'mon now. Hop in. Together, alive. Drive down highway five. Climbing the grapevine Until we arrive. Shiny and ominous. Let's swallow it whole. No waiting, let's vamonos Pour into the bowl. But hidden inside, Wrapped up in the trunk, A furtive flat tire. A old piece of junk. What could have been lovely Along Zuma beach. Suntans and bubbly Now roll out of reach. So I'll just keep cruising And smile at the sun. This new life turns over Where it should have begun. 4/16/26 ZONE S3E31 Hello, hooray!
It's Judgement Day. I called your mother. I told your friends. The truth, unfettered, Never ends. I rise above. I get the bends. You're all just rotten. Black as tar. I've not forgotten Who you are. At my request. Of my concern. I'll never rest. You'll never learn. At four o'clock I'll drop the hammer. The time has come Won't stutter, stammer. I'll read the sentence. You'll all bemoan. Forget repentance, You're on your own. No more evil. Enough of that. While flying high, Your lies fell flat. Don't cry for help. I'm busy packing. My own hard nut Is quickly cracking. 3/16/26 ZONE S3E29 Days go by,
Like the twinkle in my eye. All the shuffling here we do, To find there's nothing new. Sitting while we wait. Frown frozen in our state. We all want what is best. So sad just like the rest. Our needs when we get old. Close the door, you'll catch a cold. Rocking back and forth. Discounting all we're worth. But I still have my days, Sparkling in my face. When I used to run, I would always find the fun So now let's look alive. The only way to thrive. Retracing all our steps, To add a little pep. Wind me up again. Let me run and count to ten. Chasing after a ball, Even when I've danced them all. Time to feel alive, Before the end arrives. Brush the dust away. Hey, let's go out and play. 1/11/26 ZONE S3E21 Flatter snack.
Sneak attack. But you better Watch your back. Still, it's fun To come undone. Got your ego On the run. This and that. Dog and cat. Cat and mouse. La delouse. Thanks again. Not since when. Maybe next time. Count to ten. Adios. Beans on toast. Ham on rye. Got to fly. Call you later, Alligator. Call me back. Yackity yack. Feeling better, Altogether. Once in awhile. Better than never. 5/5/26 Rise and shine.
Didn't we have a time. No more mixing Martinis and cheap wine. Wilma, honey, You did great. Put on your face, I'm running late. Through the turnstiles. Off to work. Subway lady, "Some sorta jerk." Not much different At the bank. They don't know me, Just file and rank. All illusion. Scrambled eggs. Crank confusion, The question begs. Who will listen? Who believes? I've got nothing Up my sleeves. Wake up, darling. You'll be late. Tell Burt Sampson, He'll have to wait. 2/23/26 ZONE S3E27 |
