Well He Collapsed With Stevens-Johnson Syndrome On The E.R. Floor
Panic Attacked, Anaphylactic And Ataxic
The Way He Spun His Butterfly Risked All Six His PhalangesRoman Candles At Both Ends In His Synapses
And The Method With Which He Recycled His Humors
Trojan Horse′d His Blood-Brain Barrier And Raised The LD-50, Yes, Yes
And Through Flight-or-fight Revelation Shame The Black Box Warrior
He Skipped This Town And Headed Straight Down History
Shields Himself From Reason In A Kevlar Baby-blue Tuxedo
Quilted From The Finest Fibers, Flesh, And Fiberglass, And Flowers
His Ego A Mosquito, Evil Incarnate Good Incognito
Pops Placebos For Libido, Screaming, "Bless The Torpedoes"

If It Was Going To Kill You Boy, It Would Have By Now
For What? For What? For What It′s Worth
There's No More Looking Back, It's Looking Up Or Looking Down

Well, He Was Wearing Stolen Rubber Shoes And Wrapped A Poison Ivy Noose
Around His Lotus Jugular When They Came
Well, They Found Him With A Map To Every Victim Of His Love
And A Tattoo Of A Blue Jay On His Face
And They Waited For His Vital Signs To Lie And Let A Flatline Cry
A Hymn Out In Hungarian Harmonic

But He Cocked His Noggin, Through His Stoma Sang, "For Auld Lang Syne"
"Happy Birthday To The Succulents, I′ll Die Your Hydroponics"
His Rib Cage Was A Hornet′s Nest, Palpitations Set The Beat
His Vagus Nerve A Turk's Head Knot, An Axel Hitch, A Carrick Bend
He Wondered If Christ Consciousness Would Charge A Cancellation Fee
Auf Wiedersehn, Au Revoir, He Gripped His Wits Right By Their Ends

For What? For What? For What It′s Worth
If It Was Going To Kill You Boy, It Would Have By Now
For What? For What? For What It's Worth
There′s No More Looking Back, It's Looking Up Or Looking Down
