"haunt me (x 3)" -Teen Suicide, 2015

 

how do you name a town on a canal?

You call it a port

Like there's freighters docking

Titanics taking maiden voyages

Huge stacks of metallic boxes

We can't just call it port

 

What's noticeable about this place?

Victoriaport?

No, Deadgrassport

Screamingport

Runningport

Stagnantport

Disasterport

 

Who lives here?

Degenerateport

Outoftownerport

No, Drunkport

Addictport

Liferport

Liarport

Straycatport

 

What does this place do?

Stretchport

Sirenport

Speedtrapport

Evangelizeport

Freezeport

 

how do you name a town on a canal?

You find the guy who was here before

Before the ditch got dug and those asses strutted up and down the sides

What an unlucky son of a bitch he was

Mr. Brock to be named after this shit town
