Gilgamesh

i told Gilgamesh goodbye and rode off on the great deluge on my raft of temu plastic with my harpoon and my pagan friend I rode the surge into america on my plastic sinner boat some say the folks that are dead are gonna rise again they'll be lucky if they float I'd rather be that son of darkness than to know and pretend I don't and the mob boss with his golden chain was talking down at the docks saying YOU WILL KNOW THAT I'M THE LORD when all my working stops everything will be replaced everything that can it's how it is and always been down here in the plight of man so long it's been good ter know ya so long it's been good to ter know ya you be good I'll be good maybe we'll get it when we're older I feel older tell me where are you goin nowhere tell me where will you run I'm going where the folks are kind and there's good sunshine and the air's alright even if I gotta make it all up in my mind the hoard of weeping crocodiles scrolled upon their tech while the pageant of the reptiles charted new unfathomed depths and they wondered how they'd navigate the pit their slaves had dug I saw Atlas teaching Peter and his Pals all how to shrug some say the dead'll rise again maybe they will if just to vote I'd rather be that son of darkness than to know and pretend I don't singing so long it's been good to know ya so long it's been good ter know ya you be good I'll be good maybe we'll get it when we're older I feel older so long it's been good ter know ya so long it's been good ter know ya you be good I'll be good maybe they' won't throw us over
