Jamie Facetious

Walks fast as the creepers

Who follow him all through town

 

Jamie Facetious

Whether it’s mean or it’s specious

Will turn that smile upside down

 

But Jamie’s got

What all the kids want

It’s power and he’s free

The children part

Like Noah’s arch

Falling through the red sea

 

The admiration

Fills their faces

At everything he does

They laugh at his jokes

And howl and croak

As he whistles at a nun

 

But Jamie Facetious

Walks fast as the creepers

Who follow him all through town

 

Jamie Facetious

Whether it’s mean or it’s specious

Will turn that smile upside down

 

He’s got a mean streak

With a creative tweak

That he masks with his grin

On the railroad tracks,

With Johnny and Max,

Learning how to sin

 

The pebbles on the ground

Make him a crown

As he yields them from behind

And his wicked laughter

Plays titter-tatter

When the dent in Johnny’s

head makes him cry

 

Jamie Facetious

Walks fast as the creepers

Who follow him all through town

 

Jamie Facetious

Whether it’s mean or it’s specious

Will turn that smile upside down

 

And the moral of the story

About Jamie and his glory

Well, there isn’t much to be said

He laughed so hard

At Johnny’s scar

That he didn’t even hear

the train ahead
