Dead Bob

Quiet es a mouse
Gentle es a lamb
Happy es a clam
Dead es a...
Doorknob
Roses am red
Violets are blue
I hung myself
So fuck you
Dead bob
Button up your overcoat
When the skies are gray
Put a rope around your neck
And kick the chair away
My father was of the sky
My mother was of the earth
And i am a stupid cringing
Ignorant fucking little goof
Dead bob
Everyone is so polite
So completely awfully nice
I'm going to get a butcher knife
And cut you all a juicy slice
Mary had a little lamb
And the she had some veal
She stuck her finger down her throat
And threw up...
Everything
I will leave a little note
Hanging from a knotted rope
Please excuse my thoughlessness
I am sorry for the mess
Are you happy now?
