I CANT REMEMBER THE FUNNY THING ABOUT THE CAT//ARE YOU OR AREN’T YOU SANTA

 

I CAN’T REMEMBER THE FUNNY THING ABOUT THE CAT

there is a street by a dunkin donuts

that you walk the girls down

you take them to the apartment

with the hall full of mirrors

i cry

every time

i come

if i could just run backwards

without falling

if i could just fall

without causing a scene

 

ARE YOU OR AREN’T YOU SANTA

i’m high, of course

using my sarah palin accent

to ask you

if you wanna fuck

baby, you are a Maverick

i am down to cuddle all nite

but please remind me to soak my nose
