oh joe joe

 oh joe   joe

old joe 

he polished the floor

with a bumper

for he was leaded

from too much exposure 

in his molten past


the floor of the lab shone

with his reminiscences 

oh boy he’d been a boy alright

in his time and all that

was in the past

leaded now and gasping

rasping at his fate 


but it sold 

the lead and the gold

on many sarcophagi halted

for it was a bumper crop

of lives expended

it never ended

and i predict it never will


but what a shine they put on it
