Loosen The Soup
by Sycamore Smith

You can call me a cow
Or you can call me a lummox,
But the soup that you cooked
Is unfit for my stomachs
It's thicker than m'drawl
When I'm talkin' that dumb talk
It's thicker than the swarm of flies
Around a R.R. bum inhaling some
Lungfish chum block
-----
You could do it with water
You could do it with milk
You could do it with tears
If that milk gets spilt
I could eat this with chopsticks
I could eat this with stilts
So get some juice in this goop--
Sister, loosen this soup!
-----
It's thicker than a milkshake made outta wool
It's thicker than the skull in the village fool
It's thicker than a malt made outta his drool
It's thicker than the swarm of flies
Buzzin' 'round the mule's
Useless jewels
-----
It's thicker than a goose-down parka in a tar-pit,
Thicker than the goo Lou spit up on the carpet,
Thicker than the horse-shit
On the floor of Noah's Ark is,
Thicker than the swarm of flies
Around the armpits of
An octopus carcass
