It’s Such A Nice Day Out! (the poem the song is originally based off of)
A childhood told through pavement and Beanie Babies.
Through 6 am swim practices and
Sunday school and nerds rope and
violence.
My mom played gospel music in the car for me everyday.
Our God is an awesome God.
I think she hoped this would calm me down.
A childhood expressed through xenophobia and coloring books
and clubs with passwords
to keep the weird neighbor kid
out.
He doesn’t have any friends because his family moves around too much.
He never learned to fit in.
Exclusivity, a lasting sentiment I still hold today thank God.
Let’s go throw rocks at people’s cars.
Let’s glorify combat because we watched Star Wars too much last night.
I’ll attack you with a stick if you attack me.
Blow by blow,
one for the other.
