Snake & the Girl

I was born inside a moonbeam
'fore the ocean, salted down
I grew up just like a string bean
Holy garden, lost & found
Blessed my soul inside a soap dish
Saw the horrors of the world
Thoughts become your, revolution
Trust no snake, I
Trust no girl
I have seen his holy wisdom
I have felt his awesome word
Once I knew my master’s motive
Trust the snake, I trust the girl
I remember, James Garfield
Cut down my assassin’s stroke
Sipping tea with presidents who
Know their lives is but a joke
Maybe stand up, to your mother
Maybe stand up for yourself, you
Be you own goddam salvation
Trust your life, go
Suck your wealth
I jump out that garden made, he
Tripped with an old man cane
Fell in fire burned black with freedom
Burned but to a soul remained
Now we float in lake of sin, filled
Up with those who didn’t believe. We
Naked now, at least we know it
Swim with angels, birds & bees
