they say his name is johnny Steele 

he's a cold blooded man

he'll kill you if he feels

his arms are made of pure evil

his legs are forged by the gods

me and the El camino 

took the road down south

down to tennessee 

where the liquor is hot 

and the women are too

tea.

I hate it when my water prematurely boils

if you know what I mean

weak tea.

say twiddly winks
with your wings all in a kink
don't bat an eyelash lest you put up your drink
and just let me let you know you stink
the stench has made me pink
and don't even think
about puking in the sink
i'll put my face in ink
to remove this place of mink
and hang it's fur coat on a chain link

Got No Gold

oh my god what can I say
it's just been a long damn day
and all I want
all I want is to
get myself all whiskey lubed
think about the petting zoo
drop a nickle out into
the rain
just to see if Abe comes back again.

oh my god what can I say
everything is dried away
and the gold is gone
my hopes are gone
and i've been in the mines too long
is the inside of my bottle's walls
walk outside and take
a pee
just to see if Abe is back in town

oh my god the mine is dry

my donkey is dead and I ain't high

my pickaxe's broke the stars were wrong

my whiskey's dried and the gold is gone

i went into a saloon 

oh i went into a saloon last night

got in a fight with a salmon knife

just to see if Abe is back again

I walked down the road last night 

drunk off moonshine and lookin for a fight

I ain't got an excitin life

and especially got no goddamn wife

but i am fine 

but i am fine

just as long as abe comes back again

my prospector's life is a cryin' matter

my prospector's life is a cryin matter

I don't get no women, gold, or water

but you better say i never been gladder

just to see Abe come back again

just to see Abe come back again

oh what say you
to the giraffe in the petting zoo
say hey, you long necked nucklebrain
don't you dare look at me again
oh hey ahey yaya

just to see Abe come back again

Cosmia

is the most inspiring song there is. It's like a special drink of honey and nectar harvested from the teat of a fat country pheasant. Level Up! Fuck yea, I would jump on a horse to this song. And you better believe I would ride that horse over hills and into dales, whatever dales are. I would drench my cloak in a pool of this song, and it would be fireproof. i would sing a dragon to sleep with this song.  i would put this song on in the background of a Gnome tea party. I would climb a tree to this song, and raid a beehive to this song. I would trap this song in a wooden trap, and train it to be my best friend with honeyed chestnuts. Good girl, Cosmia.

Good girl, Joanna Newsom

sonnet.

As i lend my mind to the clouds
I remember how i forgot to remember their sound
Not rumbly, nor static, nor loud
But every word so soundly profound
As their advice came thrice to my mind
I realised then that it was finally time
To fly away with three eyes in a line
To begin the ascent, the ultimate climb
The air thins, mysteries unravel
Confusions die, knots in my eyes untie
My mind stands up to expand and travel
Revealing the plane where Earth meets Sky
A door opens to reveal a sight
And doubles back in a burst of light

My top 12 Musical Albums of 2008, right?

10 wasn't enough. I felt bad for the feelings of the two i left out. 15 is too many. I'm not that nice. This was thrown together in three time glipses, so don't blink or it will go away. I was only sure about the order of the first three. After that, i didn't care too much. I need to apply to college. I can do it. I drink lots of tea. I know the difference between à propos and apropos. I can use chopsticks good. My name is written in the Arctic fucking Circle. I can do it.

I'm not as hip as John.

A list:
love, Tucker
