i have covid and am very bored 

this is an ode to my turtle lamp, which/whom i love very much

turtle lamp

Flew into Virginia straight to RIC
Didn’t take my meds last night 
On the way a Jack and Coke was on my knee
Man I had a dreadful flight 

I’m back in the US empire 
We don’t know how lucky we are, boys 
Back in the US empire 

It’s only a crisis if it’s caused by ISIS
It’s fine if you’re just from Ukraine 
I’ll give you a job and I’ll be real nice cause 
You and I just look the same 

 I’m back in the US empire 
We don’t know how lucky we are, boys 
Back in the US empire 

This Ukraine war really stressed me out, they’re leaving the west behind. 
These Moscow boys make me sing and shout,
That Putin’s always on mymymymymy mind 

Solo 

I’ll bomb your living daylights if you’re brown or tan, you’ve got what we all sorely need 
But it happens in Europe and I’m not a fan, I’ll post a 
Blue and yellow flag on my feed 
 
 Ref. 

They set those Cuban missiles up back in ‘62, 
Man, we almost hit the floor 
When you least expect we’ll do the same to you
Doomsday knockin at your door


I’m back in the US empire
Etc

Back In The US Empire

Flip on DJHarrison's drums, ft. Kaleel J. Moore on Sax

Naimish

(tell me how you feel
tell me how you feel)

(put your boots in a knot 
put your pants in your pocket)

(let me tell you somethin')

let people know who you are
else you won't get very far
this world wasn't made for you and me
it was just made for the trees
(come on now)

(give me something)
(that's right)
(one more time)
Someone tell me WHY?!
(yeah)

What you want ain't what you get
and what you need ain't happened yet
so where does it leave you?
just crying and alone.
(boohoo)
but what you got to remember 
this moment's all we really own
(sigh)
