FREEDOM
You can't stop me from yelling "mah"
in people's ears that get in my way on Spring Street.
You can't cart me away for yelling "yuck"
at disgusting fat people on Broadway.
You can't detain me for farting on tourists in Time Square
You can't revoke my Steven permit
for yelling "Gramma Poopies" at old people.
Baby warm my cheeks with your concrete hands,
Wrap the warmth of summer in your wintery kiss.
Cool breeze thoughts blowing from the depth of your mind,
Cheer my spirit in blue oasis of butternut glory.
You can't commit me for making "noony noo noo"
an American institution.
You can't prevent me saying "Ishkabibble Farty Pants"
on every odd numbered corner.
You can't stop me from yelling "You pay now" in Chinatown.
So shove a fortune cookie up your ass.
Baby lets take a walk in the frightening forest,
Beneath a warm fire intertwined in palpitating hearts buh bumping.
Owls coo out in celebration of new spoo,
Deerhunters stopped dead in their tracks
by the smells of awakening desperation.
So soak up annoying subway ride
sing out loud of the walkman variety show burlesque,
That's me singing "I Want It That Way" in your ear.
Freedom exercised in the somewhat Jewish pattern of absurdity,
If everyone were a freak you'd be in MY city.
