The Xackerback Copyright 2000 Thomas Farren I grabbed my slape and retizoo And headed out to Timbuktu: The Xackerback was on attack Eating people as a snack, Heroes felled and slayers slain Tears were falling as the rain. ... Stay tuned... the Xackerback will be updated shortly. |

Going Camping ©2002 Thomas Farren Going camping in the wilderness, Going hiking in the hills; Don’t forget my air mattress, Or my sleeping pills. Hoping for the trees to shade And the birds to chirp; Instead I shivered by the car As my buddy burped. Going camping in the wilderness, Going hiking in the hills; Nature sided highway lanes With shrieking brakes so shrill. Hoping for the trees to shade And the birds to chirp; But Chinaman in three piece suit Played techno for the Earth. Going camping in the wilderness, Going hiking in the hills; NASCAR white smuggled alcohol, Was drunk off Jethro Tull. Hoping for the trees to shade And the birds to chirp; But the ugly girl gnoodled me And scared me into church. Going camping in the wilderness, Going hiking in the hills; I think for nature’s peace and quiet I’ll go sit in corner swills. Hoping for the trees to shade And the birds to chirp; We pitched tents in a sardine can And pooped in God’s green dearth. I went camping, I went hiking, I looked for birds from the south, But good friends cooked the campfire food So you could put it in your mouth. |
