Lepidoptera

Butterfly, cracked and classic
Spraying bullets from her feelers
Terrifying and Jurassic
Decay delicious on her features
Vibration, communication
In the back seat of a chariot
Opens up the wing of heaven
Tied in dirty velvet lariat
Greenhouse ballroom, tepid opera
Molten snow in sacred urn
Was the flame of Lepidoptera
Which perpetually does burn
Outhouse of a pervert’s tavern
Takes the antlers in her mouth
While the larvae untransformed
Shout her name and dance about
Eastern playhouse, tepid opera
Molten snow from sacred urn
Was the flame of Lepidoptera
And forever will I yearn

I know where you hide the remote
I know where you hide the phone
Baby let’s go get the remote
That way we can play with the phone together
Daddy do it
Mommy do it
Daddy do it
My turn my turn
My phone my phone my remote
Daddy do it
I wanna do it my turn my turn
Mommy do it
Open the door, open the door
I know where you hide the remote
I know where they hide the phone
Open the door, open the door
I wanna do it my turn my turn

What you been making lately?
What you been making what you been taking home
For posterity
I’ve been making money
I’ve been making money
I‘ve been making cold hard bacon
Prosperity
Whadya do with that money

Whadya do with that cold hard bacon
You been making lately
I make more money with that money
I turn that loot into money
I turn that bacon that I’ve been making
Into prosperity
How do you spend your money
Whadya do with your money
How do you spend that cold hard bacon
Mr. Prosperity
I don’t do a god damn thing
I don’t do a god damn thing
I’m too busy making
All that cold hard bacon
For posterity
