No one will ever call him our great leader
Doofus, yes
Horn-blowing monkey, certainly
Non-believer squinting up at an eclipse
That’s for sure
But he will never go down in the

The first vulture became very aggressive
And began eating carry-on luggage
The second vulture has landed
And it’s wearing Patagonia
The third vulture landed on the moon
And began eating all the astronaut leftovers

I was with
Johnny Appleseed’s younger brother

Bruce Appleseed
He was the lead singer for the band
Fake Moustache
Turns out he was just a bum
Set on vibrate
Who’d bought a 10-gallon hat once

You had to put up with
Sunday drivers
You had to love children
All children, all of them!
This is what it took to be God
It wasn’t fun
You had to be patient, sometimes
You had to pretend to look the other way

It was my latest book, Ketchup in the Eye. It was on the best-cellar list of books that didn’t sell all that well, or at all, for that matter. Well, what the hell. Anyway, yeah, Ketchup in the Eye. It’s kind of a funny story. But maybe that was its prob

The girl at the fish counter was obviously brand-new and hated her job. She didn’t know where to place her knife on the fish to slice off two-thirds of a pound.

During a party at your house, don’t be surprised if Americans just walk up to your fridge and help themselves. And you can forget public nudity with them, intoxication, or urination. Did we mention the violence of U.S. toilets?
