The Gaping Lotus Experience
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I had a friend once he took some acid
Now he thinks he's a fire engine
It's okay until he pisses on your lighter
Kinda smells kinda cool, kinda funny anyway
Satan

Satan
I had a friend once he took some ecstasy
Tried to marry me and everyone in the room
He was sort of loving kinda caring
Kinda tried to fuck my La-Z-Boy
It got a bit messy all over the curtains
Arm chair covers, throw pillows, and carpeting
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
