The Bastard

from Fossil by Kye Alfred Hillig

lyrics

For the Devil it came his wedding day
And he went downstairs to the bar
A reception to celebrate with dancing
“Come do the electric slide”
But he kept fucking up the steps
Feet soaked in Ballantine’s

And he said, “All I want is wings
To get above the sting.”
He said, “All I am is meat.
And if you call the dogs, they’ll come to eat.
If you call the dogs, they’ll come for me.”

He got in late with Rachel from the club
Drunk and laughing, she led him by his tail into the tub
Started kissing the water from the spout
And all too soon he slipped into the darkness her mouth

It was dark and lamp was out of reach
Marvin Gaye sang a song of love from an apartment down the street
He woke orphaned to the sulphur smell of eggs
And when Rachel saw his eyes she knew that Heaven fell away
