Psycho Delia
I got a backbone like the Taj Mahal
I'm a tomb that everybody loves
If you cut off my head
You'd have to dispose of it
In a box clearly labeled BIOHAZARD
Still I rise up like the cobra sheltering Prince Siddhartha
I lay down like Ophelia on the smooth cool river rocks
And pull the water up to my neck
Just high enough to keep me warm
Like Yahweh and Popeye the Sailor Man
I yam what I yam
But this time the finger of flame
Has left a phone number
To go with the name scrawled beside the urinal
