Flathead Drill Bit (Live)

Like a flathead drill bit
Like a compact disk
Like a phonograph
Like a eucharist
Like a locomotive
Like a ready wit
Like an hour glass
Like a flat head bit

I've got a friend
He wears snake skin boots
He never did pretend
To like substitutes
He lights a cigarette
And he makes it rhyme
Pours an epithet
On like cooking wine
He shows a bureaucrat
That the point is moot
Uses a silk create
As a parachute
He says Charlottetown
Is like Lafayette
And pulls a cajun sound
Out of the alphabet

Like a flathead drill bit
Like a compact disk
Like a phonograph
Like a eucharist
Like a locomotive
Like a ready wit
Like an hour glass
Like a flat head bit

He keeps his big toe dipped in
The obsolete
And just sits there sipping
A triple whisky neat
He keeps one eye open
An ear to the ground
And a finger on
Where the heart beats pound

Like a flathead drill bit
Like a compact disk
Like a phonograph
Like a eucharist
Like a locomotive
Like a ready wit
Like an hour glass
Like a flat head bit
