Minors (Remix)

There was a tender feeling within me

That felt real exposed when the band played “Minors”

And they’d hit that nerve, real good.

I could only sway to the rhythms

Of the bass and synthesizer.

I’d fucked it all up.

I knew I would fuck it all up

And I still couldn’t stop myself

And it didn’t matter if she was wrong for me

From the jump.

To keep this incredibly hot piece of ass

I was acting outside myself

Like a third stringer thrust into the super bowl 

The day of the game. 

Compromising my integrity

Degrading myself to unsuccessfully

Maintain a warm naked body for the Fall and Winter

And maybe the duration of my dwindling youth.

I couldn’t stop myself from listening to my penis

And I couldn;t stop my heart from

Blindly following along. 

II. The next morning a student

Asked me if I went to the show.

“Yes, I did.” I said.

He and his friend leaned in.

“ Well, how was it?” THey asked.

“Let me put it like this. It was the feeling of making 

Out with that really hot chick at the party.”

THey both groaned in unison. 

“We missed out didn;t we?”

“Yeah” I smiled. 

It was a pretty good show man.
