Kings

When the kings don’t remember you, you don’t stop.
When your hero overdoses it, you don’t stop.
When my spine looks like the 135 at 5:30.
When the boss wants to tighten your knot,
When you’re tied to the bedpost, it don’t stop.
When you haven’t gotten any lately,
and you’ve been stumblin' back home lookin' pretty shitty,
When you’re hanging in the gallery, you don’t stop.
When the big wigs bought the whole goddamn block.
When you live to see 27, feelin' dead at age 30.
