Novocaine

Oh I want to be 
Dead !

Waiting for the drilling 
To begin 

Dead bodies 
Don't feel a thing 

So I'm told 

Beginning to be 
Numb 

Listening to the 
Oldies 
reminding me 
Of the clouds of smoke 
And
 Playing the guitar
And singing 
In the coffee house

Now the Valium and the 
Novocaine
Are kicking in 

Joni Mitchell singing 
And I heard she 
Had a stroke 

What's it all about 
I wonder 


Royalty

Oh dear - 
   -The dentist-
I am royalty now 
With a golden crown ! 

Not on my head but 
In my mouth 
Everything, they say, 
Is a lesson 

I hate it when they 
     Say that 
For - Today l learn 
About drilling !!
