The Shenevertakesherwatchoff Poem

For Marcia

Because you always have a clock
strapped to your body, it's natural
that I should think of you as the
correct time:
with your long blonde hair at 8:03,
and your pulse-lightning breasts at
11:17, and your rose-meow smile at 5:30,
I know I'm right.

Sorrow

With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
You acted funny trying to spend my money
Youre out there playing your high class games of sorrow
Sorrow
You never do what you know you oughta
Something tells me youre a devils daughter
Sorrow, sorrow
Ahhhh, oo, oooo
I tried to find her
cause I cant resist her (I tried to find her)
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow
Sorrow
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, ho-ho
With your long blonde hair
I couldnt sleep last night
With your long blonde hair
Hu hu hu
Hu hu hu yeah
Hu hu hu
Hu hu hu yeah
Hu hu hu
Hu hu hu yeah

On modern woman

Smile, take a pretty picture,
Be the best woman you can be.

Paint your nails a scarlet red,
Stain your hair a pale blonde,
Be the best woman you can be.

Perk up those breasts,
Put razor to flesh,
Then Scrape off those old skin cells
Breed, woman, breed!
But don't you get stretch marks.
Be the best woman you can be.

Tear the hair from your vulva,
Be the first to church,
When in doubt, smile.
Steam your hair and bleach your teeth,
Don't neglect your husbands needs,
Be the best woman you can be.

Woman, did you read it in a magazine?
You're a void I can not fill.
Don't ever wrinkle.
You don't have to like it, it's gucci.
Snort this line, eat my words.
Don't neglect your petty needs.
Be the best woman that you can be.

Kitten and the Kettle

meow, meow, the Kitten says,
and the Kettle says
hey! what brings the morning so happy,
when everybody sings
the lullaby is ready; watching the crib
the babies fall asleep

meow, meow tell me little Daddy,
the milk is in your hand and lends it for me
cool in the air grasp it for free, for in my
mother lips, warm the nipple
and shall be okay

meow, meow swing it gently, my heart
feel so great, with your
hymn and songs my
whole day is complete, full every string
and the songs say goodbye,
now that I kiss you the night welcome
the day

nay come near to my pillow and
Mommy wants to sleep...

Animal Language

Miss riley had a dog
She used to keep it in her backyard
And when the dog began to bark
All the neighbors began to shout
Then came a stormy night
Miss riley let her dog out
And when the neighbors found him round
They put a gun down his mouth and shot him down
And he went
Ooohhh-wow, bow-wow
Ooohhh-wow, bow-wow
Miss murphy had a cat
On her lap it sat
And once in a great big while
It looked like that cheshire cat did smile
But often it used to chase
Anything that crossed its face
But one day it got so hot
That cheshire cat had a blood clot
And she said
Ooohhh-meow, me-meow
Ooohhh-meow, me-meow
Meow
And then the dog met the cat
The dog was hot and the cat was wet
Then came some sweaty dude
He put a board between the two
Then they couldnt get at it
Got frustrated all about it
So they did the only thing you could do
They took the dudes sweat and shot it up between the two
And they said
Ooohhh-wow, bow-wow
Ooohhh-wow, bow, me, wow

Her Name Rhymes With Mindy

Shes the one you see.
What more can I say?
Got the voice of an angel.
Perfect in every way.
From two till six,
we talked, we kissed.
The night was perfect bliss.
And I never felt like this.
Holding hands with her through the night.
I was scared, everythings all right.
I know I'm young.
She's smart, I'm dumb.
We leaned in for a kiss.
And I never felt like this.
This is for the girl who defines beauty
with her long blonde hair,
I can't see why everytime I see her,
I go weak in the knees.
Her name is Lindy and she want me.
As I think in my room of the feelings I have spawned,
I remind myself in two months you were gone.
My time with you my dreams came true,
and with you I can't miss.
And I never felt like this.
This is for the girl who defines beauty.
With her long blonde hair,
I can't see why everytime that I see her,
I go weak in the knees.
Her name is Lindy and she wants me.
I wrote this song to get you out of my mind.
But since I did, I think about you all the time.
This is for the girl who defines beauty.
With her long blonde hair,
I cant see why everytime I see her,
I go weak in the knees.
Her name is Lindy and she wants me.
She wants me and I want her.

Mee! Mee! My Cute Cat

I HAVE A PET CAT,
SHE NEVER CHASES A RAT.
SHE IS WHITE IN COLOR,
IT SIGNS LOVE FOR EVER.
MEOW, MEOW SAYS MY CAT,
SHE SWAYS HER TAIL AND GIVES A PAT.

SHE IS SOFT TO TOUCH,
I LIKE HER VERY MUCH.
SHE PLAYS WITH ME,
SHE SAYS MEE, MEE, MEE.
MEOW, MEOW SAYS MY CAT,
SHE SWAYS HER TAIL AND GIVES A PAT.

Magical Mystery Tour

I am in this low-slung sports car
painted a deep, rich yellow
driving under an Italian sun.
I have a British accent.
I'm wearing dark shades
an expensive silk shirt.
there's no dirt under my
fingernails.
the radio plays Vivaldi
and there are two women with
me
one with raven hair
the other a blonde.
they have small breasts and
beautiful legs
and they laugh at everything I
say.

as we drive up a steep road
the blonde squeezes my leg
and nestles closer
while raven hair
leans across and nibbles my
ear.

we stop for lunch at a quaint
rustic inn.
there is more laughter
before lunch
during lunch and after
lunch.

after lunch we will have a
flat tire on the other side of
the mountain
and the blonde will change the
tire
while
raven hair
photographs me
lighting my pipe
leaning against a tree
the perfect background
perfectly at peace
with
sunlight
flowers
clouds
birds
everywhere.

Oklahoma-Texas Line

Got an old dog, it don't like me much
That thing starts to bark his head off every time we touch
Sittin' on the porch listenin' to the radio
We sing every single song we know
Even the ones we don't
When she moves a little closer
She puts her hand in mine
Oh what I wouldn't give to stop the hands of time
She's got long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
I got all I ever need when at girl is by my side
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house on the Oklahoma-Texas Line
She's got a part time job at the Tastee-freeze
She took the weekend off to spend a little bit of time with me
I got an old car we drove to the edge of town
We stopped by Old Man Millers' farm
Just to watch the world spin around
And she moves a little closer
She puts her lips to mine
Ain't funny how the good Lord out does himself sometimes
She's got long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
I got all I ever need when at girl is by my side
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house on the Oklahoma-Texas Line
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house with a black top drive
Big oak tree with our names carved on the side
She's got long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
I got all I ever need when at girl is by my side
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house, little brick house on the Oklahoma-Texas Line
Oh here they come
Long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
Everything I love...

Mi Hermosa Fay

There is a girl for who I care
With deep brown eyes 
And long blonde hair
A natural beauty to behold
The love she has can not be told

Oh how I wish that I was there 
To see those eyes
And Stroke that hair
To keep her safe and free from pain
Something she'll never feel again 

One day my Fay this will be true
And I will give my love to you
I'll see those eyes 
And stroke that hair 
And prove to you how much I care

Suicide Blonde

(a farriss & m hutchence)
Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde
Was the colour of her hair
Like a cheap distraction
For a new affair
She knew it would finish
Before it began
Something tells me you lost the plan
Chorus
You want to make her
Suicide blonde
Love devastation
Suicide blonde
You want to make her
Suicide blonde
Love devastation
Suicide blonde
She stripped to the beat
But her clothes stay on
White light everywhere
But you cant see a thing
Such a squeeze
A mad sad moment
Glory to you
Glory to you
Take me there
Take me there
Got some revelation
Put into your hands
Save you from your misery
Like rain across the land
Dont you see
The colour of deception
Turning your world around again
Chorus

Catnip Dream

(m.nakatani)
Originally performed by the shonen knife. jeff performed it live at great american music hall, san francisco, on may 4 1995.
He is a cat but hes very very fat
Hes not just a standard cat
He is a cat but hes still very fat
American calico cat
Catnip is a kitty cat drug
One puff two puffs, high in a dream
Funny kittys got very sleepy eyes
I wonder what hes dreaming of
Catnip dream catnip dream catnip
Dream meow meow meow
Catnip dream
He gets his kicks from a tiny toy
A green frog filled with catnip
And pretty soon hes going to be seventeen
Kitty cat birthday party
Catnip is a kitty cat drug
We plant catnip seeds together
All summer long he watches it growing
Dreaming of the harvest moon
Catnip dream catnip dream catnip
Dream meow meow meow
Catnip dream
He is a cat and hes very very smart
He knows the coolest place in the yard
He is the king of the neighborhood
American calico cat
Catnip is a kitty cat drug
One puff two puffs, high in a dream
Funny kittys got very sleepy eyes
I wonder what hes dreaming of
Catnip dream catnip dream catnip
Dream meow meow meow
Catnip dream

The Day I Escape Glenmont

O how I long for a simple day
To walk throw a door
Lay my tired body upon the bed
To wake with life
To speak of next day with bliss
O how I long for
Afternoons of rare laughter
Nights of passion
Mornings of excitement
Yet these days are long
And hard as if they wish you not to wake
A simple day
That is all
A day to just laugh long and hard
On the floor can’t caught your breath
Yet I am here waiting for the clock to strike
And when it strikes o how I’ll smile
If you wish to see this smile
For you will never see this smile
Till this
O how I’ll smile
A rare smile at that

Dumb Blonde-It Seems True

People call me a dumb blonde
sometimes it seems true
i trip over my own feet
and i cant find the answer to an easy math problem
can the color of your hair change how you act?
if its true ill dye my hair pink
green
red
blue
silver
anything but blonde!
i love how it looks but i dont wanna be stupid!
Dumb Blonde?
I guess so

Magic Smile

There's a pretty girl
Somewhere in this world
Whose smile shines bright
Even when all's night
Even when I'm feeling down
Hers is a smile that turns me round
Shiny blue eyes drag you in
But her smile is what really wins
Her loose blonde hair looks fine
But her smile wins every time
If there ever was a smile
That seeing was worthwhile
Yours was it, a million bucks worth
None other like it on earth
Don't know if you know
But thought I'd let you know
About your magic smile
Cause its something worthwhile
Baby, don't ever lose it
Keep that smile on your lips
Smile that smile, that magic smile...

-

Story behind the poem:

This poem was written about a girl I know, who has a wonderful smile. Every time I meet her, she gives a smile that, well, looks genuine and makes you feel so welcome. There are other things about her that are attractive, but as the poem states, Her smile is what wins. Smiles are something we can all give for free, but only a few of us give them. Don't stop.

Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lake

Her gentle nature,
Light as a petal's touch
set in a motionless gaze,
steady as a fine Athenian sculpture...

Hair a blonde-white cloud of spiraling ringlets
settled to her shoulders,
eyes rare cerulean blue, stolen from
those incomparable lake pools in the Italian Alps,
or so they tell me...I have never been there, at least not until now.

Her fair skin would deepen to a rose-flush,
if she knew I worshiped her this way,
If she knew how she caused my pulse to gallop.
her fabled lips would purse,
she would flash a quick change of subject,
fighting the bemused smile of one subjected to flattery,

Hear as she quotes scripture, now,
Something from Corinthians...
Just like the Sad-eyed Lady.

Since I have fair skin, I have to stay out of the sun. I can't stand the sun. I dyed my hair red for a while during the 1990s but I'm actually a natural blonde.

A season out of time

I watch you turn around
under a electric sun
and your golden body shines
while you are slowly
turning gold

and both breasts
rise up and down
like little hills
at a out of season time
and outside the winter rain chills

and later I rub
more lotion on your back
and you yawn
when I am done
and your auburn hair
lie in strings

and to me
the sun bed looks like
a torturing rack
but your body smells
like summer
and there’s a smile
on your lovely face

and every thing is peaceful
as if all our worries are gone
and I watch you
turning brown all over

and it’s great to be together
and to at last live as one
and it’s as if
in this winter
I have come upon
a season out of time.

A White Woman With Pink Two-piece Suit

she has blonde hair
a perfect body
white against the dark
she walks alone
along the white sands of this beach

i follow her and she knows
i am following her
she stops. she stoops to pick up a shell.
she looks at it carefully.

i stop and look at her too.
she smiles. i smile too.
we exchange no word.
for this meeting.

i change my direction.
she does not follow me.
the message becomes clear.
there is no meeting
of our minds.

i remove my shorts.
and shirt.

i go to the sea and
plunge my body.
the sea is hot.
the sun is up.

i dive deeper.
i have not seen
anything.
