On The Banks of The River GorphA Poem by Michael StevensWeird, even for me!![]() Verse:
Summer twilight descends on your
peaceful place. You're feeling relaxed, with a
length of garden hose in your face. A beer bong, a lawn chair, and
absolutely nothing you have to do. "Ah, this is living" you
slur towards your camping neighbors, who
Pre-Chorus:
stare back and shake their heads in
disgust. "Screw ya'll!" you shout,
swear and cuss. Watched you drink and listened all
day to your ranting abuse, little did you know you were
tightening your own noose.
Verse:
They came here to find quiet, relax,
and kick back. You came here to make up for the
good times your life lacks. "What are you looking at,
goober?" you say to their kid. And that causes Daddy to get
pissed, and flip his lid.
Pre-Chorus: He screams, "Screw you, you drunk
b*****d!, and the joust is on. You meet belly-to-belly like two
rutting walruses, cursing hither and yon. Chorus:
On The Banks of The River Gorph, is
where you met your end, by the hand of one pissed Dad, as
your guts he does rend. Yes, the waters of the River Gorph ran crimson, cause you got on the bad side of a pissed
parental one.
Verse:
The police were called, but it went
unseen by you, cause you'd already been killed--he
had run you through. You couldn't have known he'd had a really bad day. He just went nuts and snapped, what
could he say?
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Repeat Chorus:
End
