    Idiots are infinite
    And thinking men are numbered
    Don’t kid yourself
    This isn’t news
    Let’s start with Tristan Bongo, alone in the race
    Conscription calling his name
    One more night of freedom
    An heiress high up atop the stands
    And the lines are open
    That’s Lucky Star, Eye Sore, Doctor Murphy, Sun Tzu
    The Clap, Mr. Winner, Spot, Wallace, Mrs. Gonorrhoea
    Perfect P, Deadman Walking, and The Company Favourite
    A son hands dad’s hard earned cash to the clerk
    And she laughs at the gall of the small guido lips
    “Put it all on Spot, the kid’s already won”
    John Tyler smeared with last nights beer
    Reflect vomiting Chris who dreams his dream is near
    In the form of Mrs. Gonorrhea
    Reporter reporting the state of affairs
    Inwardly asks of his prime time hair
    Why it can’t quite rival the manes on these mares
    The smoothness can’t compare
    The gleaming appliances attract attention
    The raffle prizes too many to mention
    Displayed all over the stadium entrance
    Hypodermic needles
    Hidden under a coat sleeves
    Of sweaty wise-guy money earning men
    In search of the horse to apprehend
    The race is about to begin
    The race is about to begin
    Blondie locked in 4 Eyes’ arms
    Squirming like a dying fish
    That’s the last I can recall
    The race was ran
    Someone lost, someone won
    I came and I stayed and the same ever since
    Outside
    The freaks of the wilderness, open in spring
    The time before time was the time to sing
    Unidentified song surging through the brush
    Transcription futile, let alone the rush
    You miss when hunched and scribbling notes
    Here no journalism is ever in vogue
    Despite the attempts of doctors and saints
    None have recorded its heavenly grace
    But I stayed, and stayed, and stayed
    That race was ran thirty years back
    And each day since the same
    Peel back the witness of a million catastrophes
    To see the spotty remnants each has left
    I forget in which cups I’ve pissed
    From which I can still drink
    Tonight it’s so cold my feet are shrinking
    Groping around for the sides of my boot
    It’s no night for the blind
    With all these sirens I envy the deaf mutes
    Some killer on the loose again
    Some idiot at large
    Some Chinese moose again
    An excuse for the sarge
    No sirens all silent
    The log cabin's silent
    No killer either
    No creeks in the floor
    Log cabin, what cabin?
    A shack’s all I have
    Yes, my cubbyhole’s stuffed with skeletons
    But my neighbours are stuffed with anthrax
    Where does that leave us?
    I came thirty years back
    From Salafessien, via South Schlagenheim
    To Sunterum and Sunterime
    The late Sun Sugar’s home town
    Buried not far from here
    My only friend
    Neighbor, what neighbor?
    My shack is all alone
    This pen, changing lines
    One line at a time
    Blindness? What blindness? Sweet blindness
    A little laughter, a little silence
    A little magic, a little kindness
    A little all over me, yes me
    The first, the last, the everything
    No trace of anything
    No sin, no life, no fun, no time, no any-****ing-thing
    No one, no yes, no house, no shack, no A, no B, no C, no et cetera
    No one, no two, no et cetera
    No school, no life, no work, no time, no book, no art, no point, no truth, no use, no friend
    No know, no knot, no hole, no birth, no end, no real, no fake
    No king of this useless nameless non-land
    No end to this nothing nonsense non-song
    No day set for my saviors arrival, to carry me far
    Across green waters, above the sky or below the depths
    Among the white cloud or red steppe
    Or to fly forever in-between ends
    Or in-between in-betweens
    Or in-between no-between
    Or no nothing, no saviour, no journey, no end
    A thousand years of no nothing hiding from nothing
    No reason to hide sins or reason not to sin
    No reason to pretend
    No reason to pretend there is not no reason
    Oh, yes
    Blondie ran on the track
    4 Eyes got stuck in the rail
    The reporter was caught getting sweaty in the stable
    Blondie gone, 4 Eyes gone, Guidos gone, Clerk gone, Chris gone
    Tristan Bongo the man who never left
    Tristan Bongo never left
    Still here
    I stayed
    The clown can be a martyr
    The whore can be an angel
    The hack becomes a master
    The crass becomes divine
    The infinite, infinitesimal
    And all sins irrepressible
    No use digging holes to hide
    The rupture comes and leaves no stone unturned
    So don’t wish for anything
    The clown can be a martyr
    The whore can be an angel
    The hack becomes a master
    The crass becomes divine
    The infinite, infinitesimal
    All sins irrepressible
