THE REAPER'S FAVOR
written by Sycamore Smith

The dust devil sucks swallows outta the sky
Mantis gone a-courtin' for her sweetie-pie
Don't offend the men who sow the seedy side
For they are like to flash a scythe
Before your beady eyes
And they will keep the little peepers
That they prize...
-------
From the most abrasive coot
To the cutest little shaver
From hop-head nuns
To whores who love the Saviour--
The Reaper's gonna do 'em all a favor
-------
The hurricane churns away over the sand
A swarm of locusts chokes and decides to disband
Damn your eyes, my valentine, I curse yuh
And as your vision gets worser and worser
Rest assured that I will see you in Hell,
But not vice versa...
-------
From the most abrasive coot
To the cutest little shaver
From crooked cops
To cons with good behavior--
The Reaper's gonna do 'em all a favor

The maelstrom is chasing the tail from the brothel
Somewhat like the way I chased whiskey with scotch, till
I was blind drunk, cruisin' through the boozer
My friends all tell me I seduced Medusa,
Must be true, cuz I got snake bites
On a place I never used tuh..
