Featherhead

Claw in the jaw: katana

Chaw it, withdraw, catena

Chain yoke poltergeist, can’t come through it

Freight smoke coaster ride, were’re in it

Spate oceanside, I’ve been in it

Marine tide: Coriolis it

Trapeze courage: lotus it

I float and then I wilt and sink

Moat, and then the stilt and brink

The tilt, and the jilt: rebuild it

My palace in the borealis

Slight advance: end up scallopy

Hem, haw a dance: under the sea

Seesaw the ante: understory to canopy

Safari unvanned: predatory

Slung across my rearview reality

My tongue slugs along as I steer for sanity

My black lungs flow through the char and ore cavity

Bumpy ride: cobble superficiality

No depth, the fishing atrophy

Polluted to a catastrophe

No bread: call it macaroni

No gold: it’s a cheddar trophy

Spell it cheater without a D

Folded feather in his head

Bitch stole my wing spread

Caught just one peperoni

And let it get to his head

Might be some lead in his head

Ask for just a minestrone

He’ll order a pizza instead

More baloney than there is sauce

There’s an alimony in this sauce

Get the fuck out, featherhead

 

Call me angel, I’ll fly away

It will get better but only

When I’m faraway

Wed the gale: that’s matrimony

Check the scale

What’s heavier?

A pound of gold or

Pound of weasel words

You only come out at twilight

Make it up on the letterhead

Don't try to make up

It dosn’t get to me

Yeah, we’re both afraid

But we’ll be okay

I’ll fly far away like a bird

And you'll settle down like a featherhead

Yeah

I’ll fly far away like a bird

And you’ll settle down like a featherhead
