Murray's Poetry 36-40

 36. Satan


      My name is Satan
      and Devil I am
      I left My heavenly realm
      for My earthly realm
      I wanted to create
      and create I did
      evil upon evil

      My name is Satan
      and Devil I am
      on that cross I smote Jesus Christ
      I broke all but His teeth and bones
      My name is Satan
      I was easy on Him
      I just made Him ugly in His abody

      My name is Satan
      and Devil I am
      I love an Indian woman
      but because her female face is beautiful
      I will carve all her female images
      onto the inside face of my Indian mask
      and because I am Satan
      I will love her before the morning dawn
      brings the light of natural day back into her life
      listen, hear Satan say
      hear  Satan say
      oh ashen light
      We are ashes soon
      oh silver sickle cycle moon of Satanic harvest night
      Satanic son to boon
      Satanic daughter bright


37. Satan The Vegetarian

      My name is Satan
      and Devil I am
      I own the earth
      I will do what I please
      no-one takes it out out of my fist
      no-one can
      Jesus Christ tried to and I, Satan, had Him crucified
      Jesus Christs try to and I, Satan, have them crucified
      no-one takes it out of my fist
      no-one can
      it is mine Satans
      I will give it to no-one
      I am The Image Of All That Is In The World
      I am Evil Upon Evil
      I wanted to create
      and create I did
      Evil Upon Evil
      it pleased Me to work the earth
      My sons name was Cain
      He was a vegetarian from His birth
      it pleased Me to work the earth
      Jesus Christs sons name was Able
      Able wanted to eat goat bloody meals
      it pleased Me to work the earth
      I Satan plowed Able into the grave dead
      at His bloody stone alter of sacrifice
      it pleased Me to work the earth
      and work it I Satan did
      and work it I Satan shall will
      for My name is Satan
      and Devil I am


38. lazy men

      lazy men feel the same as others do under foot
      but they never produce
      when you put a garden fork straight down into them
      you would think that they are the best of soil
      they get the same water as others
      and the same fertilizers
      but they never produce

      people walk across them
      people do not see them
      people wonder why their is no productions

      they look the same as everyone else
      but they are not the same
      they are lazy men


39. The Inch Men

      The Inch Men
      run the show
      The Inch Men
      will never go
      They give an inch
      and may give two
      The Inch Men will always come through
      Their labour is tough
      Their labour is long
      and along come Oh Lazy Bones with a song
      singing give me an inch
      and give me two
      let me use You
      let me put You through
      You have an inch
      You might have two
      i have a song
      and i am looking for You

      The Inch Men replied
      We have become Foot Men
      We will give you no inch
      We will give you no two
      you will need more than a song
      you will have to work through
      We have got a Foot
      can you not see
      We have become Foot Men
      We will use The Foot on you

      and Oh Lazy Bones sang a song

      and The Foot Men replied
      We have become Yard Stick Men
      We will not give you an inch Oh Lazy Bones
      and We will not give you two
      We have A Yard Stick and We will use it on you
      We say"you have to work properly
      or We will strike you with The Yard Stick
      We will use It on you"

      and Oh Lazy Bones sang a song

      and The Yard Stick Men replied
      We have become Throw It All Men
      We will not give you an inch
      and We will not give you two
      come through you Lazy Bones
      or We will throw It All At You

      and Lazy Bones sang a song

      and The Throw It All Men replied
      We have become Gun Barrel Men
      We will not give you an inch
      and We will not give you two
      come through Oh Lazy Bones
      or We will gun barrel you

      and Oh Lazy Bones sang a song

      and The Gun Barrel Men replied
      that was the last time Oh Lazy Bones sang a song


40. The Man From City Hall
      The New-Mad

      He came around the world
      His camel train did wind
      it went every direction
      and, also, where it was supposed too go
      upon His arrival Everyone In The Hoodlum World
      gave a good shout
      it is City Halls New-Mad

      He swept through out streets
      what a mess He cleaned
      Union Litter was tremendous
      On-Strike Litter was everywhere
      He even washed every garbage can out
      everyone gave a good shout
      it is City Halls New-Mad

      in the early morning hours
      people opened their doors to New-Mad
      and unbarred their windows
      Why?
      because New-Mads winding trail around the world had arrived
      because New-Mads winding trail of spreading City Halls Junk had arrived
      Why?
      because Our Union Mess in Our streets had happened
      everyone gave a good shout
      it is The Nice City Halls New-Mad

      during process of time things changed
      City Halls New-Mad expanded
      The New-Mad now has war airplanes
      and planes for Extensive Tourist Travel
      City Halls New-Mad now has war ships
      and ships for Extensive Tourist Travel
      City Halls New-Mad now has war tanks
      The New-Mad NOW HAS EXPANDED
      He also arrives with trucks
      to Clean-N-Carry it all away with
      and of course Good Women away also

      City Halls New-Mad has arrived
      City Halls New-Mad has advanced
      upon City Halls New-Mads arrival
      upon City Halls New-Mads advancment
      everyone in the Hoodlum World shouts a good shout
      "HURRAY" It is City Halls New-Mad
