Traiskirchen (Puke Song)

from Arcadiate! by Total Gadjos

lyrics

50 bunk beds on linoleum
chicken half dancing on a podium
of stomach lining and undigested quills
Warden sprawled out on his back
the walls and hallways smell of sex
I’m 12 years old and listening to the kills
And it’s hard to feel and it’s hard to handle
tricky maneuvers always cause a scandal
As I edge my way to the WC
And like a rock rising from my cock
or a shipwreck floating back to the dock
Stuff came out thank god I didn’t see, yet

Institutions are always build
to make a person fill with guilt
after leaving just a tiny speck of doubt
But I tell you man and it ain’t no lie
god’s revenge from the sky
rained, hailed, and thundered from my mouth

puked out of the 4th floor window
rain on my lash
10 Mississippis and I heard it splash
puked out of the 4th floor window
wind held my hair
you don’t care to hear this
I don’t even care

Cows, wigs macadamia nuts were mixed in with some porcupine guts
Among other things I’d rather not divulge
Except to say that it was unclear if it was a baboon’s or a human ear
That came out of the pile and made you molge
Ok you talked me into it
there were also some barbiturates
a monkey’s brain and a half-full glass of sap
worms crawled out of a pigeon’s toe
ants and maggots in a row
Headed for a dog’s severed yap

puked out of the 4th floor window
rain on my lash
10 Mississippis and I heard it splash
puked out of the 4th floor window
wind held my hair
you don’t care to hear this
I don’t even care

and world peace came over me
body sucked the sweat in exquisitely
there was evidence of murder by 7 blows
all over those institution walls
the bars, the stars, and the glass trembling
and there was this image and it's always here
windows puking into atmosphere
and I spewed another load

you may think this is kind of strange, but it’s not if you rearrange
right and wrong to wrong and right
nobody put me up to it
the brain just kinda made a hit
and summarized nightmares into a shout
but at that moment I felt alive
fear and slumber left and died
and passed out in the distance like a stone
running water comes to mind or the sun exposing through a cloud
when I think of that night and what it disowned
