I partied with the devil
It didn’t go well
Rode the escalator
To the pit of hell
Million kinds of poison
Alter the brain
Buckets of cocktails
Intensify the pain
Been out of my head
In a seaside bungalow
Been down and out in places
The grass don’t grow
Been torn asunder
Nasty and slow
Deliver me, Lord
From my soggy-headed woe
by Richard W. Bray
when my head
was in my bootie
i found the
perfect cutie
in my drunken
dream of beauty
her devotion
never tires
she lives for
my desire
i’m all that
she admires
my dreams
cannot resist
a lover
such as this
too bad she
don’t exist
by Richard W. Bray
tell me where it hurts
you don’t have to tell me why
maybe you don’t know
don’t be afraid to cry
tell me where it hurts
you don’t need me to reply
i’m just gonna listen
just gonna be nearby
tell me where it hurts
bleed it till it’s dry
i’m not gonna judge you
remember i’m your guy
tell me where it hurts
where it went awry
together we can heal
together we’ll get by
by Richard W. Bray
This fellow who follows
This odd little gent
Just gets on my tail
And never relents
This fellow who follows
The path of my shoes
With a single ambition
To do what I do
This fellow who follows
He just wants to play
It’s always his fate
To get in the way
This fellow who follows
Is my little brother
An object more precious
Than any other
This fellow who follows
My feet to and fro
Has taught me to scruple
And watch where I go
