BORN 042010 - EUREKA

James Michael Taylor

This lady at the Tap-In in Grapevine said she didn’t like this song. She asked me if I really feel this way. I said, “Not right now.”

BORN

I curse and complain when I hear that refrain
They say. “Happiness comes from within.”
If we are what we eat and that means anything
I belong in the vegetable bin
Oh, how I wish I had died as a child
When you’re a boy you can hop om a toy
And ride out in front of a car
Half of the time you find something to climb
And your mom doesn’t know where you are
Oh, how I wish I had died as a boy
I sit on the brink of the thoughts that I think
And I might as well cut my own throat
Like my grand daddy did I will leave nothing hid
It will all be here in what I wrote
I only wish I had never been born
Oh, how I wish I’d never been born
Oh, how I wish I’d never been born
La la la
Well, suicide’s tough when you’ve had enough
When you’ve never learned hurting yourself
No drugs and no booze. Not ever tattoos
Just good healthy food on the shelf
If I could just go to sleep and never wake up
Oh, how I wish I had never been born…
