| "The Ballad Of William Burroughs Creek" | |
| Oh I took me a ride down to the Burroughs house The home of a late great hero Yes, poor Williams dead now Across the street instead now There lives a paranoid unfriendly fellow My camera made less racket than a dormouse But I got me just a few clear photos Then this fella opened up his door Said What the hell are you here for? And in his voice were no friendly hellos Well not only was he acting rude But more than once he called me dude I said, This here is Burroughs Creek He looked at me like Is a geek So I left him to his artless heartless mood Now Ive told this here tale twice or thrice now To my friends in the good old avant garde They all say this guys suspicious All his jeers and his bad wishes Really mean he’s got a meth lab in his yard Well not only was he acting rude But more than once he called me dude I said, This here is Burroughs Creek He looked at me like I’s a geek So I left him to his artless heartless mood Yes I left him to his artless heartless mood Oh I left him to his artless heartless mood Copyright 2006 by Taped Rugs Productions/Charles Rice Goff III |
