MALICE (2009)

Been eight minutes since you posted
Still composing my reply
Writing language fire-roasted
Phrases hot enough to fry
Proving to everyone I’m in the right
Keep it coming, I’ll be here all night



(I’m) Convening the voices that live in my head
Taking advice while refreshing the thread
Nobody’s going to bed
While there’s still more to say
Here goes one more touché
A little malice
Goes a long long way


Diet coke and Irish whiskey
Damned if I’m the one to blink
Here’s the word, fried extra crispy
Typing faster than I think
Hopped up on Jack, caffeined to the gills
Last man standing who knows the drills

(I’m) Convening the voices that live in my head
Taking advice while refreshing the thread
Nobody’s going to bed
While there’s still more to say
Here goes one more touché
A little malice
Goes a long long way


The voices in my head
I won’t adjourn ’em
Except the voice of moderation
That annoying exhortation
To build bridges
Why build bridges
When I’m just gonna burn ’em


(I’m) Convening the voices that live in my head
Taking advice while refreshing the thread
Nobody’s going to bed
While there’s still more to say
Here goes one more touché
A little malice
Goes a long long way
