Days of the Week

from Striving For A New Tomorrow by David P. Smith

/

lyrics

Booze party Saturday
slack-jawed Sunday
Monday Monday
regularly a travesty
two-fisted booze day
Tuesday
Wednesday the sun is a poached egg
wobbling
up in watery sky
Thursday everyone is impressed by
the authenticity of the twinkle in my eye
Friday the sun is a bruise
aubergine
the sky is a one-eyed sailor
when words fail you
don't bother to speak
these are the days of the week
these are the days of the week
these are the days that I'm weak

The lord high king of jack-asses
skull filled with poisonous gases
pandering to his ashtray heart
meanders to the handy liquor mart
there are few things in the universe stupider
than a man with a head as big as Jupiter
daylight unflinching reveals
what darkness kindly conceals
dawn arrives inexplicably bleak
these are the days of the week
these are the days of the week
these are the days of the week
these are the days that I'm weak
and I'm in a daze this week
