.

it’s a beautiful world
and
everything is wonderful
ha
say that five times
click your heels together
and
you just might
maybe
possibly
believe it
anything’s possible
let’s try together shall we
it’s a beautiful world
and
everything is wonderful
not
working
it’s a beautiful world
and
everything is wonderful
bullshit
it’s a beautiful world
and
everything is wonderful
click click
it’s a beautiful world
and
everything is friggin wonderful
are we in Kansas yet
it’s a beautiful world
and
everything is hunky-dory
any believers out there
that’s it
I
give
UNCLE
ok I’m cool with the beautiful world part
that’s a given
I mean
Look outside
you got your blue sky
your mountains your flowers
all that nature shit
you got loads of people that love you
what’s not great about that
beautiful smeautiful world
fine
the everything is wonderful part
I
just
can’t swallow
who says
huh
do you honestly think that just by
saying
everything is wonderful
that it is
or can be
how stupid is that
everything
is
not
wonderful
some things are wonderful
like
like
like
what I’m thinking here
sex
yeah that’s wonderful
beautiful even
what else is this wonderful word
being able to hold you hostage with
these stupid words
is wonderful
I can really mess with you here you know
really friggin
get your goat
piss you off
make you mad
if I wana
but
I don’t so so so suck my toe
all the way to mexico
or
st johnS st johnS st johnS HA
I know I know I’ve lost it
its all that trying to Believe shit
here’s what I believe
that
it’s a beautiful world fine cool whatever
and
everything is Not wonderful
a few things yes
everything no
and it don’t take no rocket scientist to figure out
why
so keep clicking people
just click your little heels off
and
I’ll meet you
somewhere
over
the
rainbow
shutting up now
aren’t you glad
late

Josie, terrific as always. I'll see you on the other side of the rainbow where we'll find our pot of gold. Oh and don't ever shutup, what you say and how you say it is better than most.
