Parapet

Two hours to spare
Today is short and sweet
Only fifteen dollars last night
So today I could take to the street across Whiteford
To Rutter's to obtain my cigarettes
We dusted the nonbelievers
To shake the dust from our feet and walk away
Knowing only ones low protective wall
And the inevitable coming of the season of fall
And I took upon me faithful witnesses to record
Our Uriah and such Zechariah
The ducal and the duchy
In a mood vulnerable and touchy
To challenge the laws of chance
Let it all unfold
Now sleep even if you're sitting upright
Kick me fastened on my sleeve
Saying a prayer for brother Steve
For we are labored together...





I Planted, Apollos Watered

Ye are God's husbandry
Ye are God's building
Now he that plant and water are one
Every man shall receive of reward
According to his own labor
According to the grace of God
Given to me as a wise master builder
You're going to be a star
It's best to remember where you come from
Now that you have come this far
Let everyone take heed how he builds thereupon
For prim affectations where I go unto the prophetess
In search for love and she conceives
To call his name Maher-shalal-hash-bash
I mention this name for the third time
For other foundation no man can lay
That is laid that is Jesus Christ....





Tel Aviv

Say it don't spray it
Another mission accomplished
I stir up the trapeze
The cause of two souls
I dwell closely nevertheless
The princess shall not be as such
In her vexation and beautiful vulnerability
For thou has broken the yoke of his burden
Today I'm on top of things
Now she knows that nothing's going to stop me now
For no other foundation can no man lay
Save what is laid and that is Jesus
Dragging my feet across the seat
And jumping out the passenger's side
Ono last multiplied the nation
Asking oneself
O, what if God goes on vacation....
