The girls
love the boys
with the somber expression
when they lock lips
they get heroin eyes
red smear'd kiss
it's a glamor infection
their heart-strings tremble
as they stare at the lights
they want:
FAME
GLAMOR
MONEY
EXCESS
The "fabulous" vogue
in time with death
praising excess
as they genuflect
before the disco ball
of irony
clawing at idols
like they are autograph fiends
they want:
FAME
GLAMOR
MONEY
EXCESS

They've got a BIG GRIN
with silk-screened teeth
it leers at the crowd
at the starving dog
at the blank canvas
it screeches:
"I am the BRAND! I AM THE MYTH!"
then rushes forward
tongue prone, and salivating
he bites down
tearing the flesh
from a listless crowd
Hey
you cannibal
eat all your greenbacks
hey
you cannibal
it's common currency
you've been biting my ass
with rented dentures
but my skin is too thick
to be pierced by usury

Gambling Man

the gambling man
will force his hand
between the teeth
and the shattering glass
he'll shake you down
for every cent
and rip the tongue
right from your mouth
he needs a fix
he'll take the risk
then drag us down into the abyss
a lumbering beast
a pure instinct
did not escape
it was released
he is solidly built
of malevolent will
whose sole goal
is to hunt and kill
it bore a hole right through you...
he is strapped for cash
and he needs it fast
this brief reprieve
it cannot last
the gambling man
will force his hand
between the teeth
and the shattering glass
it bore a hole right through you...
