Just shut up already about herbal remedies, I told her.
This was on Valentines Day, hours before Sally fed
my dog some herbal medication

Just to be near Melanie
In hopes I would be well positioned

Now let me get one with the background of vintage automobiles,
tinted postcards, motels, and Route 66 trying to slake my

Some guy brought a blender for Happy Hour
And some people even bring their TVs

Perhaps curious folks with time
Will check them out and get hooked,

When your rationale for going to war
turns out to be false,

Saturated in morphine
breathing like a hurt animal
maybe somewhere deep down
at the bottom of the mineshaft
