You Wake Up Deadmen

Jandek


You wake up deadmen
With your loose sex 
You shout at them, C'mon 
And as they fumble in half-delirium 
You smash them back down dead 
With a thud 
Or drain them dry and throw them aside like an empty bottle 
Always keeping them as a collector 
In a nearby trash barrel 
Unless they completely break 
And are fortunate enough to be swept away 
And you, all knowing handler 
You heartlessly say 
You don't know me, you don't know 
And we turn further to the grave 
More lost than ever before 
Unless some unknown force 
And even then that island is an enigma 
And they long for the trash barrel 
And your scathing rebuke 
Ah you knew them well 
Before you consulted the night 
And their dreary ways 
Your instinct is the truest thing 
Your hate is the staunchest foe 
Your queen bee love leaves a lot to be desired 
Take it from a friend
