The fall of the American empire will take place in an am/pm 2001


jacked up on caffeine

hooked up on nicotine

and racked up on gasoline

the fall of the American empire

will take place in an am/pm


3 hot dogs for 1.99

and orange cheese that pastes

jalapeno peppers

to the walls of a sphincter


40 ounce bottles of nigger killer

seduce crackers kids too

good riddance is all that’s said

by the fat white man

and the pasty white bread


tabloid racks talk of celebrity gods

and detail their plight

but how much worse is a break-up

to the sorry fuck five removed

who wastes three minutes

riduclusly concerned?


energy drinks sell the baby on overtime

in a shiny bottle and a clever campaign

rule number one never drink anything

that looks like battery acid

and tastes like it too


nervous glances in the candy aisle

a mom substitutes

honey for affection


the good news is

cel phones and cigarettes

can ignite gas lines

and save the usa

from complete and utter destruction

at the hands of the am pm
