some lovely parting gifts - marathon lyrics
gonna wipe this crowbar clean
and pry off my face
i’ll roll up my sleeves and dig around
until i find the stains
and shampoo my soiled brains
old yellow gauze, a rusty scalpel
and some cheap whiskey
the tools for this home remedy
students stuffed in cl-ssroom pockets
but something’s out of place
words are leaking out his sockets
words he was supposed to memorize
better get the comp-ss, this one needs redirection
soon they plugged me with ambition
pulp from textbooks soaked in fiction
i feasted on compet-tion
congratulations, you’re this years champion
cue the announcer, please tell him what he’s won
letters validate the tests
numbers to see who’s the best
now i understand that life’s just a contest
black mortarboard, a wooden ruler
and papers marked with a’s
the tools that taught me to think straight
now i don’t call out the answers
i’m the host, i ask the questions
raise your hand, who knows the answer?
be the first to press your buzzer
watch my eyes as you call out the answer
see them twinkle as i smile
watch the scoreboard when you get the answer
lights will flash and cymbals will crash
confetti rains down from the sky
so tell him what he’s won
a lifetime on the run
pursuing number one
red grading pens
gray chain-link fence
mental detentions
the tools that left these stains
