The Peace and Quiet Path
Two rats were caught fucking on the ship,
while the ship was busy sinking
The captain came along and said,
why are you two still here?
You’re always the first two to leave
They said, what when did we ever leave?
He said you just got back
They said, what are we doing now then?
He said, pretending you’re not fated to die.
Why are we doing that then?
Because that’s the only thing you can think to do and conserve what little dignity you have left of that notion you heard talked about once called Freedom
They said ooh eee ooh eee ooh eee ooh eee
He walked to the port hole, opened the port hole, walked out of the cabin and sealed it shut.
They said voo vee voo vee voo vee
They had no idea who he was
They just kept on fucking
They just kept on fucking and asking each other who that Form is or was or whatever
Hoooo heeee
Eventually, that Form moved to a place in the ship, where he could no longer hear evidence of their existence.
Then he leaned back in his chair tilted his cap over his eyes and took a nap in perfect Peace and Quiet.
