Slam Dancing With Sumo Wrestlers

It was, he said, just an unfortunate misunderstanding 
A misunderstanding of words spoken and their intention
There never was, on his part at least
                             Any intent to harm or injure
Anyone, at anytime, for any reason whatsoever

But often in situations such as these
When words fly recklessly out of liquored up mouths
And burn like coal seam fires in Appalachia
                             Every intent to harm or injure
Is all that will ever be remembered

As the man said, it's all about culpability

Can't stick a finger in a light socket 

                And blame the shock on the current

Can't slam dance with sumo wrestlers 

                And blame the pain on the music
