The Popcorn Hater

There's nobody here
No one but me and the Janitor
Both are exploring our fears:
There's meat inside our heads
Our skulls, our brains just
Roll around

I asked him his name
He said, "You can call me the Janitor, boy. Can
I call you the same?"
I shook my head and laughed
And told him that was fine

The minutes turned to hours as
The morning turned to afternoon
I'd only just arrive there
But I knew that I'd be leaving
Soon

For a year and a day
I rolled with the Janitor's crew
And each evening he taught
Me a secret. I know
Mandarin Chinese
And I can Kung-Fu fight

It was part of his plan
Filling my head up with
Movies and books
Wouldn't make
Me a man

Then every night
We waged a
War upon the earth

By day I played the schoolboy but
I'd secretly been half awake
My body grew in portions
And my mind began to elevate

Ode to the Janitor that cleans the basement carpet
Somebody spilled popcorn all over the place
Ode to the Janitor that cleans the basement chocolate
Ode to the Janitor
Some call him the Popcorn Hater

You think that I'm a kidding
But assuredly I'm a kitten, cat
Meow!

What are we to do?
Man, is it me who you want?
He said "Boy, I'm the future of you
There's meat inside your head
Your skull, your brain just
Rolls around."
What are you to me?
Janny said, "Boy, come outside
I've got something
I'd like you to see. Now
Close your eyes and take this
Candle in your hand."

We set that dorm on fire and
We watched it burn right to the ground
The ashes rose to Heaven
And the lack of God came smiling down

This is a place where old children
Come to die
This is a place. We're old children
Come to die
Meow!
