It is not that ye are hot or cold
That I spit ye out of my mouth
It is that ye are lukewarm
It is not that ye are bad or broke
That I doubled the guard dogs at my gate
It is that you‘re a hyena masquerading as a clown
It is not that you’re a pimp or a bore
That I wore my chastity belt to bed
It’s that you lap-danced on Venus’ mound
It is not that you put my foetus in the oven
And a dog’s head in my womb
It’s that you fathered a mongrel hound
It is not that you played soccer with my parents heads
And Russian roulette with the heads that were left
It is that your sperm count was so low it made me howl
It is not that you fucked up my life for good
And kept pushing the hope button to boot
It is that your boot was only an old rubber Jim boot and it stank foul
It’s not that you sang: “God is dead
And Lucifer got him drunk and rooted him till he bled”
It’s that you only hummed it and not even loud
It’s not that you’re anti-life, anti-hope, or a dope
That I aimed the razor slingshot at your head
It’s that you smiled your wan smile instead
It’s not that I ripped out my heart for you
And stuck it together with super-less super glue
It’s that you let me down
It’s not that I shriek this shrill song of you
And you don’t even know it’s about you
It’s that the ache goes ‘round and ‘round
It is not that the Hell that I saw
Was much more than you saw in your war
It is just that your wound was not raw
It is not that you begged me to wait
Till millenium's passed through our gate
It is just that it's late it's too late it's too late
