NEW AMERICAN OOMPA

BY JAY WELLER

 

WELL, CANDY RED AND JELLY BEAN

ARE SLOPPING CREAM AT THE DAIRY QUEEN

MR FRED, ALL SHIRTS ARE SHEEN

HE WORKS DOWN AT THE QUICK ‘N CLEAN

 

GREASY FRIES AT THE WHITE CASTLE

NEVER MISSES THE DAILY RAFFLE

SORTIN’ BOTTLES AND DRIVIN’ SNAPPLE

I’M HEADIN’ OFF TO THE BIG APPLE

 

BOOK ME IN

HOTEL RITZ

MASTER CARD

WILL COVER IT

 

PILLS AND BUD

BUTTERED GRITS

ONLY RUNNIN’ ON DOCTORS’ SCRIPTS

 

 

WELL, CRACKER JACK AND BILLY BLADE

BE MOWIN’ GRASS ON THE PROMENADE

GOLDEN TIPS CAP FLAGS OF SATIN

JUST TO SHOW WHAT THEY WON’T BE HAVIN’

 

AS LAWRENCE WELK AND WOLFMAN JACK

ARE QUIETLY HAVING HEART ATTACKS

THOMAS J AND HIS SLAVES

ARE JOINED IN RUMBLING IN THEIR GRAVES

 

LOST THE REGAL

MICKEY MANTLE

GONE LIKE FLAME

WITHOUT THE CANDLE

 

YOUR HOLLOWED HALLS

RUN BY VANDALS

PARIS HILTON

TROLLS AND SCANDALS

 

 

 

RICHIE’S GOLDEN PARK PLACE CRAPPER

DAVID’S MOLDIN’ DUMPSTER WRAPPER

DUMPSTER DAVE COULD BE A HIGH PRICE STAFFER

BUT HE DON’T COMPREHEND THE CURVE BY LAFFER

 

AS A ZOMBIE HAZE FLOATS ABOUT THE RAFTERS

COMES THE GHOSTLY FORM OF THE HOODED GRAFTER

TO THE SIREN SONG, AND THE JOKER’S LAUGHTER

I WONDER THE END COME NOW OR AFTER

 

HOOK ME UP

ALL VEINS ARE LAID

JUST ONE NIGHT

NO MEDICAID

 

FILL ME UP

VAMPIRE GRADE

VODKA, JACK

AND RAZOR BLADES

 

THE PREACHER CLAIMS THAT JESUS SAVES

KING OF HEARTS SEZ BEWARE THE SPADE

SMELL DON’T LIE BARKS DUMPSTER DAVE

AS THE BLIND MAN BENDS DOWN IN HIS CAVE

 

SOME FIND PEACE IN A TWO PACK HABIT

OR OTHER FORMS OF NARCOTIC BANDAGE

I PUT MY FAITH IN A COUNTRY RABBIT

WHO SAID A OUNCE OF GOLD BE WORTH A HEAD OF CABBAGE

 

BEST STOCK UP

ON GUNS AND GAS

BUT KEEP YOUR DOLLARS

TO WIPE YOUR ASS

 

ALL LINE UP

STRIKE UP THE BRASS

AND BONES WILL CRACK

IN THE SIREN’S GRASP
