The Clown Juice Blues

By BrenPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

we're putting the clown juice

into the water supply

into the school milk

of that you can be assured

we’re putting the clown juice

into fruit and easily digestible by-products

inject it willy nilly into lollies and ice cream

of that you can be assured

inject it into meat for the supermarket

spray it from planes in the air

spread to the far and the wide

of that you can be assured

seas and winds will carry this illed spore

and take to all points far and wide

nowhere shall be immune

of that you can be assured

soon everything will contain the clown juice

in the air in the water and in the food

everything will be thumbed down, dumbed down

of that you can rest assured
