INTRODUCTION
image001.jpgblah, blah, blah
shut the fuck
up
tired of your
blistering
lips
talking
junk
and shit
you
think you’re
handsome
you
think
you’re cool
but to me
you are
a bewildered fool
who is it
that put your head
so up in the clouds
fuck around
I’ll shoot you down
to the ground
you fool
imbosol
idiot mime
stop your performance
you’re just
wasting your time
you have
gone and lost
your mind
thinking
that you knocked
me off my feet
please
get over
yourself
wipe up
the defecation
you laid upon yourself
and restrap
your
belt
are you
done
shitting on yourself
you’re
full
of shit
I’ll
take
a piss
where
you
stand
you’re
no
man
but now
you stand
in my land
you think
women are meek
little bit weak
fall down
and
kiss my feet
we’ll, I
have you
beat
soon
we’ll turn
your world upside down
make it bleak
show you that you’re
the ones who are weak
