"Backwards"

I'm well past the houseboat phase

I'm into sailboats now

I was so backwards in those days

Today I stand on the prow.

"Destroy"

Talking to oneself's a joy

No one there to contradict

Mind games that destroy

Hobgoblins who restrict.

"Cope"

Some people hate the King

Other hate the Pope

But it's the buffalo wing

That helps us all to cope.

"Death"

Give us Rube Waddell

When the game is on the line

Before he hears death knell

   (for drinking all the time).
