The Speed Lady Song
A True Tale of the Boarder from the Border of Hell

Fattest tweaker I have ever known
Chubbiest I've ever seen
I always thought they were mere skin and bone
On the crystal methamphetamine

Tweak

Tweak

And then she starts to speak
And there's never a moment's peace
Just when she seems fine
Then she'll start in on the wine
And her furies never cease

Oh when the Speed Lady's in my house
I feel like a cornered mouse
Oh what I put up with for four hundred bucks
Her untreated paranoia raging Goddamns and fucks

How it fills my life with grief
And it also turns out she's a thief
When she jumps into my bed
How I wish that I were dead
When the Speed Lady's in my house

I should mention that The Speed Lady Song is not only a poem but an entire song and dance number, complete with elaborate choreography and physical comedy, which I have performed live in front of large audiences many times. It used to be a dirty little secret, but it is actually perhaps my most popular poem ever, so I thought I would share it with our members and guests here. I hope you enjoy The Speed Lady Song, and I hope to be able to perform it for you live someday. You really should see me dance; now that Michael Jackson is otherwise occupied, I mean to take his place as a singer and dancer.

very good...i enjoyed it throughly....excellent

*LOL* ;D
