Man,will you please set up a fucking show in Nashville. I want to go see it...because your girl fed me rat poison...but I didn't die because my love for her kept me alive....and I kept hanging on to my wonderful life...Long live the Mattoid Nashville music beats the fuck out of broadway.
Yo 'Toid... Long time bro'. Love the folk tunes... Very Brechtian. Hope all goes well. Much the same shit here, but now I'm growing brocolli and potatoes...(by the score!)...
That video of my heart goes on is quite funny the way you act like a comedian and use things like timing to make your friends in the audience laugh.
Hope your career is going better than the british government or, for that matter, the american government as they have all been lying and now the lies are catching up with them and shit is rising to their necks where rats will be able to crawl in to their mouths.
I don't mean to be political, I just happen to be master of the sewers.
Come to england, the russian mafia aren't looking... quick, before you have your hands chopped off. Cancer is everywhere, and you can get it, you can get it, you can get it, you can get it... The Crap Stage is reforming for the Big Chill. Come and play and we can be banned again.
Write to my g mail one day. It would mean something small.
Roses are wet violets are korny, when I think of you Ohh baby I get ass slapping horny, Eat me, Beat me, Bite me, Blow me, Suck me, Fuck me, Very Slowly, if you kiss me, don't be sassy, Use your tongue and make it nasty!!!
Tell me is hell really sinki should I take Comet to scour it out when I visit? And are there a lot of fins there should I arrive in a shark outfit since it is Finland?
