the weird short story of a frightened bug looking for his lover in a dangerous human's house
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Little bugs, soar and sink and sail into white eyes, through dark skies
Little bugs, fit and flit and flutter into red mouths, into pink mouths


Little Bugs - Josh Taft

high pressure, the gods are gunna getcha
and oh my god those girl’s lips felt like rain

i make peace and i make peace and i make peace and love and tea
and i make peace and i make peace and im a piece of shit
i make peace and I make peace and I made peace with gravity
and i make peace and i make peace and im a piece of shit

also i found the picture of the tommy gun online i dont have a tommy gun in which to shoot at the sun with

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hot shot, shot down, when they were walking, on a cloud
The shot, came from below, where the kids, with liquor go

I am not the one, that took the shot, shot out the sun
No not I, 
I'm not the one, that took the shot, my tommy gun

My TOMMY GUN
MY TOMMY GUN
TOOK THE SHOT, SHOT OUT THE SUN
MY TOMMY GUN
MY TOMMY GUN
TOOK THE SHOT, AND THEN I RUN
MY TOMMY GUN
MY TOMMY GUN


Tommy Gun - Josh Taft

Open up the Gate
Take me to the roof top
Take me far away, where no one knows my name
Where no one knows my name

We're gunna try real hard
It's gunna pay off good
We're gunna do so well
Smokin cigarettes for food

I been at the gate
Up on the roof top
And you know that you're late
Always making me wait, up

House Party - Josh Taft

You've seen days where CD stores were all the rage,
now you're dying in a digital age
Everyone wants to change the cobra,
no one feels the snakey flow-ahhhhhhhhhhhh
There's only one thing you gotta know when you're here,
For godsakes boy, don't drop the beer

You got ten fingers, you use one to touch the world,
six to call the names, three for the cigarettes that get you through the day
You know it's time to skip this town, forget about the faces,
get the bugs out your skin, go again, run the basesssssssss
There's only one thing you gotta know when you're here,
For godsakes kid, don't drop the beer

I'm wishing you the best
the sun is such a beautiful thing, isn't it?
bouncing off the tarmac, burning off the spit.
Tunnel vision on the side of I-95
eyes of the drivers, eating you alive.
what is this town? what is this place?
every off ramp the samesamesame thing different face
Goddamn this backpack, these weak legs of mine.
another hour walking past an unread county sign
Maybe someone gunna come pick you up when you're around
either way the curb sides a better home, than your last town

There's only one thing, you gotta know when you're here,
but you fucked up kid, you dropped the beer

Snakey Flow-Ah! - Josh Taft

140-letter poets, throwing tantrums, throwing fits
he calls themselves a feminist when he's looking at tits,
only an activist when it fits; 
yeah only an activist when it fits
say the fighting's wrong, but they love it to bits

100,000-typing chimps
practicing grammar, practicing diction,
they only get paid writing erotic fanfiction
(like) Fabio Lanzoni and a pile of dudes,
grunting loud, sending nudes,
and the monkeys still don't make enough money for food
(because people think it's tasteless when they get reviewed)

20 years, with auditing ears
endearing egomaniac puppeteers,
hiding my fears, begging for beers,
always going home before the music is over
ignoring the skirts, overdoing the sober
Learn the side effects from a manila folder

100,160-numbers in a song, plus 1 repeating,
plus 1 repeating, plus 1 repeating,
a manila folder will tell you how I'm feeling

Day-Tripper (in progress)

The Heat Is Broken

Y MUST WE ALL STINK LIKE CRUST A STORY TOLD 2 ALL U BORING FOLX
A fifty here a fifty there 
its such a pity 
where you are too puny when you're wallets empty 
I AM SO NOT SORRY 4 U
I AM SO NOT SORRY 4 U

I keep all my quarters, peep me grinding silver dollars surely
I'm a hooligan again, when sleeping at the wheel u r so quick to get retired
I'm so tired of this kinda life, I'm wired right when driving 
IM A SPACESHIP I AM TAKING FLIGHT

And smoke will come out of my eyes and fall into your car 
you know 1 day I will apologize
And smoke will come out of my eyes and fall into your car 
you know 1 day I will apologize~

WHY MUST I NOT FEEL OKAY I NO U R SO LOVING 
THATS THE 1 THING i APPRECIATE
A gunshot here a gunshot there
I think u r the bullet u could save or break my life
you can choose it BUT I'LL CHEW ON IT
BUT I'LL CHEW ON IT

I keep all my quarters, peep me grinding silver dollars surely
I'm a hooligan again, when sleeping at the wheel u r so quick to get retired
I'm so tired of this kinda life I'm wired right when driving 
IM A SPACESHIP I AM TAKING FLIGHT

And smoke will come out of my eyes and fall into your car 
you know 1 day I will apologize
And smoke will come out of my eyes and fall into your car 
you know 1 day I will apologize
And smoke will come out of my eyes and fall into your car 
you know 1 day I will apologize~
And smoke will come out of my eyes and fall into your car 
you know 1 day I will apologize
