SINGER: Tomahawk
SONG:Harelip
I am the harelip. give me one more kiss. we'll have a mardi gras on deserted streets. fingers and forceps. raw meat and muzak. the bubbles in the wine keep the nerves dead. I was awake all through the surgery. the people dancing, laughing, all for me. you sewed me up but it will never heal. will i forget then learn to smile some day. Potbellied sick bed. all scars and sweet breads. a lonely vacation, your own disney parade. it's all that he has. clamped up by walkmans. a midnight waiting room. hear the distant screams. I was awake all through the surgery. the people dancing, laughing, all for me. you sewed me up but it will never heal. will i forget then learn to smile some day.
