Don't place your bets on me just yet
|
I'm only half-way home.
|
|
This racket takes it's toll
|
My scams are smooth and cold.
|
I'm bathing in a fountain
|
And I'm not getting old.
|
I crave to catch an edge;
|
Break bones and cartilage.
|
Send back the architects of Carthage
|
Take down the flag
|
Forget the pledge.
|
I'm only half-way home.
|
Puff out your chest and step to the sun
|
It's done its best to burn everyone
|
Whose gotten half-way home.
|
|
Cut me in 2 3
|
1 2 save, 1 2 waste, and 1 2 eat.
|
I cut myself in 3
|
1 4 us, 1 4 them, and 1 4 me.
|
|
Drinking pots of coffee
|
Till every drop is gone.
|
Painting a portrait
|
of Ponce deLeon
|
Out of clipped nail
|
From the hands and the feet
|
Of every lost and stubborn soul
|
I hope to ever meet.
