PETER RICHARDS (7/13)
Mars! Mars! Mars!
& we’re bouncin’ off the walls!
& Peter Rich’ll teach ya which,
You beach- & basketballs!
You beach- & basketballs!
—Ya slam ’em in the net.—
HELL sinky, kinda kinky
Key to oubliette.
Umma-gumma yes ma’am,
Umma-gumma no.
Here’s the siren, Keats and Byron,
Tie! it’s time to go.
Guy, it’s time to go!!
We’re bouncin’ off the walls!!
Peter Rich’ is forty-six,
You beach- & basketballs.
Peter Rich’ is forty-six,
You beach- & basketballs.
