credit ratings the lure of hollywood and liberty


 
meat's
  lame  siren's  kall 
------------------------------------------

pink :


 i'm  strictly a cash and carry  guy
  now  myself...

just 
like u

  cash and carry


===================================


 
  look at u 
u take a  pay check
  cash it
      and submerge 

no cell phone no charge card

  no car registered in u're name 

just a job at a job site
by the hour 
 for the  take home part
          of a gubmint 
      gouged paycheck 

aah  that spells liberty ......


freedom from the digital harness 


----------------------------------------------

we are told
  under final total  socialization 

     this bum's  liberty 
   will be gone forever 

  but for now 
guyz like u and I  still have it

long as u're willing
 to  give up 
 living inside the man's  credit  circle 
      
 if u leave that  
to  the slow freight  honest joes let them
toil and trouble 
 and still  spend the balance of their  life
passing   thru  ID  digital toll gates 
sweating  out each stage 
stage after stage after stage 

 a life  rated 
  geared and  monitored
  from the first transaction to the last  transport 

    

but u're a  richard kimble pink 

ready  at a single  moments notice

to go 
undercover 

   ready to  run  with just u're hideous  flab 
                           from  the fucking T men 


well so am I 

i've made gun powder sure 
i've 
 got nothing to hold me back
          or hold me down anymore 

I'm  free to slip thru
           the  system's interstices 
find its blind spots
duck  the sweep of its tower beacon 



 there's of course your start up

what folly 

  u  a  masked shadow ????

and even so 

even so 
 the tax squadristi   will in time
  get u in their cross hairs pink

u know it  

u'll  just  have to scram 
some day anyway 

  come on scram now
  make  out here
          for the far coast

 join  me  out here
u worthless porker 
             
         that was  our  first plan 
         back in 73 any way 

 come on

  we'll  become 
           two  invisibles

         a  ghostly duo

                  nite mare figures

                             plundering  the studios
                            
                           by candle lite 

             " borrowing" their archival gems 
                  to make our compendia 

             phantom  raiders of hollywood 


-----------------------------------------------

why continue this long deadly  present of yours ....



  
     a shapeless   blot
           to be found nowhere  
             on the ledgers 
                of merit

            just  another 
             nasty dry drunk counter part 
                              after a  credit bust  

         just   out there somewhere 

when u could out here somewhere 

    de horsed de graced like there

but here
  ready to strike  
building a death ray

even 
without a wing and without a prayer 
 capable of a stroke of pure  artistic 
                                   destruction 
                             powerful enough
                                 to stun the sunset  
                                 and
                             rout ten thousand  frost giants


--------------------------------- 



ps 
my inspiration:



" when you ride without 
 credit or merit or recognition 
           what a  fine breeze 
                flows thru your  hair "
                             bob mitchum     

 he's right and u fuckin know it baldy 

  sure it ain't
             like being hamlet 
 sure u won't be 
  capering from blossum to thorn
      from pollen to puss  

sure  u won't be procrastinating    
 with the flame of holy  revenge    
                     in your pocket  

but  shameless  spite and so bad 
fuck 
it's about  as close 
as this dismal  digital age
                  can come to a  holy state 
               

          face it
           we're  stiffed  mongers all

trying to repo what never was there to begin with 

   bartering
    our   virtual equivalents 
                    of  
                         fame or fortune 
                                 
                                  for worthless 
                                       pin ups 
 

far better 
  we live
           on the  run offof the slaughter bench

                even   just the  drippings

         even  just the  last  rusted  drop  .....
