the darkness

Television graphic print

and the bad cat

Getting good reactions with your evil talk

And it's a whole lot more than anyhow

I want to fly, fly up a fountain

Little Johnny Jewel

I want a nice little boat made out of ocean

Don't say unconscious, no don't say doom

What I want I want now

I get ideas, I get a notion
