JOHNNY, ROLL YOUR EYES ONCE MORE
by V.S. Frimmit
JOHNNY, roll your eyes once more
and they’ll roll out your head on to the floor
you’ll only hear them rolling out the door
because you won't be able to see no more
Johnny, keep teasing the dog that way
There’s no need to listen to what I say
I can’t even get the damn dog to obey
so he’ll probably rip out your throat one day
Johnny, go say that word again
That's a grown-up word to use when you're ten
That word’s going to be your only friend
and you’ll be alone with your word in the end
