Left versus Right

Friday 13th November 2009 12:13 am

Funny ha ha or Funny being strange

Funny telling jokes or Funny being deranged

Such a jolly being or Such a prick de-brained

Such a gentile soul or Such a beast untamed

The left of me is wholesome The right of me is maimed

The left can stay and pleasure The right can stay in chains.
