INTEROFFICE COPULATION Interoffice copulation, the fax machine makes love to me. I didn’t mean to lick your nameplate, there are some things that the minds not meant to see. I’m giving birth to a whole new species that lusts to fill every office need. There’s a bonus in there somewhere for you; foreplay, intercom, intercourse, interbreed. Come in, come in, come out. I was walking down the hallway and I saw you standing by your cubicle. And I wondered: Where do you live? What do you think about? What would you look like if you were mating on the xerox machine? Interoffice copulation, the fax machine makes love to me. I’m setting us on speakerphone. There’s something that I’d like for you to see. Come in, come in, come out.

DEAD GIRLFRIEND I have a collection of sharp objects. Pencil, x-acto, ice pick, paring knife, next... And if it sounds kind of ominous, it's because I'm gonna use it on your head. Oh, no. Not another dead girlfriend. She's a friend of a friend of a dead girlfriend. I have a collection of dead girlfriends. Sarah, Molly, Meredith, Erin, Jen. And if it sounds kind of obvious, it's because I'm gonna put them on my bed. Oh no, not another dead girlfriend. She's a friend of a friend of a.

NOW! (by Ron Spencer/Charles Jamison) NOW! NOW! NOW! NOW! NOW! NOW! NOW! Despite my obligations, I still find time for all of this. You can sell it, or just let it go, but believe me, there's nothing more than right now! Despite my obligations, I still find time for all of this.

Freezie Poof 03:35
FREEZIEPOOF When the trap is set and the bait is laid it takes 'till 8 P.M. - the snake comes crawling out. You're afraid that it's freezing again. Sleep. Freeze. When the time is right and the patrol car rolls on by they're still mopping blood from off the counter tile. You're afraid that it's freezing again. Sleep. Freeze. Slow time in a tender frame, it's the first time ever and you're freezing. Mouth filled with Lidocaine, it's the last time ever and you're freezing up. When the time is right and the paper's printed up they're staring off the metro section from ten year old high school photos. You're afraid that it's freezing again. Sleep. Freeze.

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS Clay can be shaped, but you're all nurse Ratchet sex appeal. Smile and pretend that you never have been there; involved. Kill it now while it's still squishy and it's vulnerable. It's hanging from the corners of your mouth; it's like the turning worm. Too late, you're a part of this horrible thing that we've all created. Suck out the center, shlorp it down. Just play the game Harding. It's hanging from the corners of your mouth; it's like the turning worm. Too bad, you're a part of this horrible thing that we've all created. Signs and symptoms. Symptoms and signs. Clay can be shaped, but you're all nurse Ratchet sex appeal. It's hanging from the corners of your mouth; it's like the turning worm. Signs and symptoms. Symptoms, symptoms and signs.

The Maw 02:00
THE MAW (by Ron Spencer) The Maw can see it all at once the last thing you'll say is when I close my eyes I see the Maw can see it all at once the last thing you'll say is when I close my eyes I see the Maw. I have seen this wretched man shaken by some god. Is this not the man you were looking for? The Maw.

CHROMATIC GOD OF NOSTALGIA (by Ron Spencer) I remember / Brainstem / Post-it notes of bright metal, cars of many colors and alcohol. Burning the candles of indifference. I remember / Dogrug / Bloody islands of sucking pig-dogs and hearts containing bottles of anti-alcohol. For those belonging to the emperor. Yes! No! Give me and answer! Don't wait around. / Significance? / Experience. / I remember / Superhole / Subjunctive-pill-popping-excess; the navel tease of hunger for novelty and ever and ever more novelty. Yes! No! Give me and answer! Don't wait around. / Significance? / Experience.

RE:THE CORPORATE SECRET (Ron Spencer/Charles Jamison) In regards to your immediate dismissal... step into my office because you're fucking fired! Ha, Ha, just kidding. There's a memo from the upper office. Hmmm.... let's see here. You're fucking fired! You're being charged with impersonating a human being. You're being billed for the parking space you wasted.
