H. Auden[/COLOR][/B][/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT] [FONT=Arial]Did you ever hear about Cocaine Lil? [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She lived in Cocaine town on Cocaine hill, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She had a cocaine dog and a cocaine cat, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]They fought all night with a cocaine rat. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She had cocaine hair on her cocaine head. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She had a cocaine dress that was poppy red: [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She wore a snowbird hat and sleigh-riding clothes, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]On her coat she wore a crimson, cocaine rose. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Big gold chariots on the Milky Way, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Snakes and elephants silver and gray. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Oh the cocaine blues they make me sad, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Oh the cocaine blues make me feel bad. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Lil went to a snow party one cold night, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]And the way she sniffed was sure a fright. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]There was Hophead Mag with Dopey Slim, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Kankakee Liz and Yen Shee Jim. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]There was Morphine Sue and the Poppy Face Kid, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Climbed up snow ladders and down they skid; [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]There was the Stepladder Kit, a good six feet, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]And the Sleigh-riding Sister who were hard to beat. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Along in the morning about half past three [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]They were all lit up like a Christmas tree; [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Lil got home and started for bed, [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Took another sniff and it knocked her dead. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]They laid her out in her cocaine clothes: [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She wore a snowbird hat with a crimson rose; [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]On her headstone you’ll find this refrain: [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]She died as she lived, sniffing cocaine [/FONT] |
