Cloth Made From Barbed Wire


Can't you at least be entertaining
If you can't be clever?

                        The masses shouting for amusement
                        Also cried out for substance
                                                The cat known for his sarcastic sting
                         Screamed back you aren't deserving 
                                                                      Of the endeavor
                                                               And the green-eyed man
                                                               With the artificial smile
                         Said to the hairdresser in Ventura
                                                 He liked her style
             As she danced brazenly around the living room in her
             Blue underwear 

Not one to be thought of as rude
The mermaid told the telephone operator
"Maybe if you let it ring a bit more...
...he might be running to the phone now."

                                    All of us 
                                    Have looked at the horizon
                 And wondered where the rainbows touched down

Jake York, you passed too soon
