Lustre

I’m a little steamed…

The smear campaign is wearing thin
Your jokes are getting old,
This bullied shit is weighing in
You assholes must be told,

My name is such a dirty word
You can’t seem to abolish,
You’re all convinced this well crapped turd
can take some two-bit polish,

Well, sorry people that’s not me
I’ve frankly had enough,
For anyone can damn well see
I mostly come out rough,

So don’t poohoo my label, folks
I know I don’t pass muster,
Forget the buff, the thousand strokes
This shit won’t gain no lustre!

Bird

I am a…

Inside an egg I’m specially made
I grace the world whilst getting laid
Protected, nurtured till I hatch
I’m bald and squawking, whatta catch
I am a bird…

So now I’m someones precious pet
My antics make the internet
I’m tethered good, they’ve got me chained
They seem to think I should be trained
I am a bird…

Well…

I’ve mocked and mimicked all I’ve heard
I’ve mastered every dirty word
I ate my seed I’ll have you know
and even drank the H20
Yes, I’m a bird…

This beak is sharp, my shriek is shrill
I just shit on their window sill
When horny I’ll just root my perch
And if I went, I’d swear in church
For I am bird…

There’s no more I’m prepared to do
I’m done with circus tricks for you
I did that stupid little dance
For Christ sake give my wings a chance
I am a bird!

That big blue sky is all I see
You heartless bastards, set me free!
I’ll make your home life hell on earth
and screech for all I’m fucking worth
‘Cause, I’m a bird

Later…

The feathers flew and not just mine
I got the flick, I crossed the line
A life of freedom now preferred
It paid to be a downright turd
A fucking bird!
