"IN THE GHETTO I HAD A DREAM, JOE" SAID DEANNA THE SINGER, THE BOATMAN'S CALL OF "GIVE US A KISS" WAS DISMISSED BY THE MERMAIDS LISTENING TO THE SHIP SONG; "I NEED YOU, SO DO YOU LOVE ME?, IF YOU DO BRING IT ON AND GET READY FOR LOVE" WROTE THE LOVERMAN IN A LOVE LETTER, EACH BONY BRANCH OF THE SKELETON TREE TRIED TO PUSH THE SKY AWAY TO PROVE TO THE TUPELO IT WAS STRONG. O WOW O WOW HOW WONDERFUL SHE IS) FROM HER TO ETERNITY, IF THE LONG DARK NIGHT BRINGS CARNAGE STRAIGHT TO YOU MAY YOU FALL INTO MY ARMS TO BE CLOSE TO MY HEART; THE WILD GOD TOLD THE FROGS THEY WERE NOT TENDER PREY BEFORE HE TAUGHT THEM THE SONG OF THE LAKE, O CHILDREN OF EARTH MAY THE RINGS OF SATURN BRING US TOGETHER AND NO MORE SHALL WE PART. JUMP FOR JOY ON JUBILEE STREET, BUT KEEP DIRTY FEET OFF THE MERCY SEAT, DIG, LAZARUS, DIG!!!! IF THE DIAMOND IS A ROCK THE SIZE OF THE ROCK OF GIBRALTAR; A KARAOKE MACHINE SEEMED LIKE A WHITE ELEPHANT TO JOLENE GHOSTEEN WHEN SHE LISTENED TO LOCALS MURDER BALLADS IN THE NOCTURAMA, BUT THE WEEPING SONG PLAYED ON THE LYRE OF ORPHEUS WASHED AWAY THE ABATTOIR BLUES AS IT MADE THE EYES WATER.”
