Last Long Laugh

Lyrics

I was a teenage porcupine A bed of nails running down my spine A trail of tears up a hill of beans A last long laugh at the edge of dreams Nobody told you about the curves The battered brains and the busted nerves But you can't let the bastards bring you down A last long laugh at the edge of sound Last long laugh at the edge of sound How many times around the sun 'til you drop your leaves & say you're done? To be such a houseplant is no crime A last long laugh at the edge of time Last long laugh at the edge of time Need I remind you about the end - The gaping void just around the bend? But why would I waste one single breath? A last long laugh at the edge of death Last long laugh at the edge of death
