I smell ham and biscuits
I ain't eatin' Triscuits
No more
No more, no more
Gonna get back on my Harley
With my mutt named Bisquick Charlie
I just ain't eatin’ Triscuits
No more, no more
And I heard you know the score
Yeah, I know you

Ever the chance we were given, with luck always, fate. At least we engendered the song and the drink. Having sailed from the goddess of sensual love, having the best throw that beauty allowed, now you can call it will, though some will call it hate.

but the nitre keeps burning
So glows the gloss and high sheen on the skin
Foreheads exhibit thought

That’s not just a
trinket on her finger,
that’s a rock, a fortress,
a castle. No one
can scale those walls
