Down There

Down there, ain’t nobody gonna love you. Down there, ain’t nobody gonna hug you. Down there, the Devil’s kisses, they taste just like MUD. Down there, it’s all just burning and boiling and blisters and blood.
Down there, you’ll think you saw JESUS out of the corner of your eye, but down there turns out is where all these sons of bitches went when they died. Down there, the sky doesn’t fall but it tilts to the side, and down there, they’ll eat you alive bite by bite by bite BITE BITE BITE.
In hell he lifted up his eyes…
Down there, everything’s just motor oil and broken glass. Down there, the little guy keeps right on getting fucked in the ass. Down there, ain’t nobody gonna never ever just get along. Down there, it’s a lot like up here but it just goes on and on and on and on and on.

In My Tree

Killing time in my tree, feeling good, feeling happy. Watching birds watching me in my tree.
Well hello pretty girl. What’s wrong? Aren’t you happy? Come along, join me in my tree.
I got branches, I got leaves, I got grubs, baby, if you’re hungry. I got everything a body needs in my tree.
Climb inside, follow me. Close your eyes if you’re sleepy. Lovingkindness lasts forever in my tree.
Killing time in my tree. Feeling good. Feeling happy. Bless the Lord that led you to me, in my tree.

These are the lyrics, but I've never used them:
What I see, God's in heaven, and angels fly in squads of seven, and what I know is Jesus loves me, sure as hell's below i got the great sky above me. All right.

That's how you treat a harmonica. I had the privilege of playing after Sxip one night, and his show was so powerful and terrifying that I actually ran backstage and practiced!
