Buddha pours gasoline on himself
Im in the backseat of the car 
Temptation island season 3 episode 9
A meteor shower 
 
Im looking at the lights on the dashboard
A religious calling 
Morning anger
Calculating where each cherry tomato should be placed on the salad 
I’ll cut off your nipples
You’ll remove another piece of my __ 
 
I think you’re an ungrateful little bitch
Tattoo of baby taz on the cheek 
You dont like to see the eyes 
and the skin
But the texture is like jelly 
 
Buddha pours gasoline on himself 
The main looks fantastic but I don’t eat lamb
It has this distinctive smell 
Artists lie
(and are all cowards)
Two hours ago 
Prime location on your face 
A strong dedicated father with a criminal impatience 
Beating myself into asylum 
 
Big mummy milkers
Join the party and take action 
Which is a big L in my opinion 
And i am happy to announce that as of today 
I am an estate agent 
You can Call me by my human name
 
A digital butterfly flapping its wings, trapped inside a glass cube
You (somebody)never had (say) someone who (just) got your back (eat)
