"You're obviously a fucking uptight asshole
Who is wrong about nearly everything."
--Jeffrey St. Clair

"Hey fuck you, write your own goddamn articles
... you dipshit."
--Dave Marsh

You're obviously a fucking uptight asshole
A fucking asshole
A fucking uptight asshole
You're obviously a fucking uptight asshole
Who is wrong about nearly everything.

Truth is revolting. You're obviously the type.
Truth is revolting. Because you seem.
Because you seem the type. Hey. Something wrong?
I've got a 30-odd year career going on.
Read the goddamned law. I've got a career going on.

Do your best not to choke on it.
The twisted seem, the you. The infantile
The fake, the artificial
The inauthentic bullshit. The tissue-thin
Revolt. There is NOTHING I can do.

My inferences come from YEARS of talking.
The truth is too fucking stupid.
And so it goes. You're obviously--
And so it goes. You're obviously--
And so it goes. Something wrong with that?

Hey, fuck you. I'm writing against the hardly worth responding to.
Hey, you dipshit. I'm writing against the goddamned paternalism.
Hey, fuck you. I'm writing against the stupid fucking comfort.
Hey, you dipshit. I'm writing against the condescending prick.

Read the goddamned plaster.
Read the allegations and plaster the goddamned bullshit.
