Last Rites and Final Wrongs (audio)










Listen here ... if you dare.

media.putfile.com/Last-Right-and-Final-Wrongs




I’ll brush my teeth all sideways.
I’ll wipe from back to front.
Refuse to flush the toilet.
Grab everything I want.

I’m gonna drink REAL coffee.
Not gonna take the pill.
I’ll dress in Tuesday’s panties
for my Monday's nooner thrill

I’ll show up late for breakfast.
Won’t pray before I start.
I’ll eat it with my fingers
then I’ll cut one noisy fart.

I’ll yell that I’m the feller
with BOTH elbows on the table.
I’m talking with my mouth full
and not reading warning labels.

I’m gonna stroll out belching
coz I ate my dessert first.
I’ll hog the biggest piece of pie -
and leave you liverwurst

  Chorus:
   I been a good girl way too long
   It’s time this gal got bad.

Forget sweet please and thank yous
for I’ll hardly give a damn.
I’ll leave one door wide open
but that final door I’ll slam.

My radio is blasting
but, I’m turning off the news.
Hell, I’m even throwin' bleach in
while I wash my whites with blues

I’m gonna write a too long poem,
spell wrong and not enjamb,
add clichés to my horrid rhymes,
incur the wrath of Nam.

I’m gonna buy the cheap gas
while I smoke dope at the pump.
Throwin' my recyclables
directly in the dump.

Toss litter out the windows
tailgating as I go.
Swerve into the other lane
then drive too freakin’slow

I’ll cuss all stupid drivers.
I’ll even have the nerve
to give it just a bit of gas
as I take that final curve.

  Chorus:
   I been a good girl all my life -
   It’s time that I got mad.

I’ll pass that blinkin’ school bus
on the right side, on the grass,
as I hurry to the school board
who can finally kiss MY ass.

I’m gonna get to work real late
cuss the kids who are plain stupid.
Tell all the brilliant kids they’re shit
shout one final “F. U. too, kid!”

To hell with being ladylike!
I’m gonna grab some ass.
I’ll be watching raunchy porno
while I teach my ethics class.

My dog will shit on all your lawns
as I proudly skip away
to refuse to pay my taxes
and to screw your fiance’.

So, I’m putting off tomorrow
when I’ll use that final verb
to hang one final goddam sign -
Now closed – Please, don’t disturb.

  Chorus:
   But for this rottin' good girl,
   Please, don’t feel blue or sad
   Coz I’ve broken every golden rule
   and, wheeeee, what fun I’ve had!

    the saying about going to our grave with a glass of wine and howling what a ride - well this is YOU!
    I adore this, every well mannered tradition for the 'older' man or woman totally trashed in one foul swoop and its great.
    who say the young have all the fun

    PHewww... another friend spared the agony of sound. I'm feeling better about this all the time. Thank you for catching the rebellion fever. I do think we all need to throw off our 'proper' skins from time to time, if only in our imagination.

    Couldn't hear the audio but enjoyed the read - great lyrics, and sentiments well expressed in these lines - we feel the rebellion and the need to do these things you say you will do - good write.

    Thanks, Seth. Glad you got a chuckle out of my twisted imaginings. Worse than those though are my attempts at singing. Makes one wonder if there won't be a spontaneous outburst of the hallelujah chorus when I go.

    Yippeee! NoWayJo is back to her old self. Phewww...that frees up at least two memory cells in this decrepit brain of mine.

    I must admit I found many more rules of life to break the more I wrote. I'm giggling to think of your (in)significant other wearing pink panties. There may be justice in the world, after all!

    You two have been spared the agony of listening to me croak out an attempt at singing the first part to the 'tune' of Yellow Rose of Texas. Do yourself a favor and hum it for yourself. I wouldn't want our friendship smooshed by torturing your ear drums.

    hugs,
    Jane

    heartnsoul,

    Be grateful for life's small gifts -- that of NOT having to hear my rendition of this. That in itself is a very good reason NOT to repair those drivers. Remember what I said about facesless poets? ... I think it is the same in this situation for silent ones.

    unfortunately, my speakers aren't working here, but I could almost hear these poem-lyrics rapped-ranted out! and it's so Un-Jane of anything I've ever read of you, but I can't say I hadn't been prewarned about this unconventional streak in you!

    enjoyed the read for so many things...and I'll even admit to actually DOING some of these things myself, although I washed whites with red--(not blue) once and me and an (in)significant other had pink panties for a long, long time!

My goodness Jane, you out did yourself on this one!I can just see you defiantly breaking all the golden rules!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Great background!!!Not only is this hilarious but it is smooth as silk.

    Blame it on galfalfa ... she's the one who 'inspired' me to give it a shot with all those wonderful prizes.

    Now that I've dared put it out here for the world to hear, I'm planning an extended beach visit where I can safely bury my head in the sand.

    I knew I had to get this one out of the way today if I was to have a hope of trying out your latest contest. (seems I am only alloted so much creativity in a day)

    hugs to you, Ann. You give me courage.

    I'm still laughing at myself. ONLY YOU could manage to wiggle this embarassing revelation out of me. I'm still shaking my head at the idea of trying to figure out how to do a rap. I missed it by a mile, but it sure was fun trying.

    Hey, you don't teach for all these years and not figure out how to at least sound intimidating on cue, you know. Unfortunately, my kids were on to me... they knew I'd growl and then have to turn around to hide my giggles.

    Now, do you have that duct tape at the ready?

    I'm laughing my ass off...with you! of course. Your lyrics had me busting a seam. I was so glad I went to the bathroom before I heard them. The yankee doodle dandy theme was perfect.

    I'm still working on mine. Trying to get a take without the hoots of my audience!

    and would that be laughing at OR laughing with?

    Give your roomie my sincerest apologies.

    Now get to it, girl! I don't want my bare ass hanging out all by itself.

    I'm considering also putting in the recordings that were even WORSE than this --- if one can imagine there is such a thing.
