La Phew, Hooah

I was fuckin’ around

and now my knee

smelts like jasmine.

Which aint so bad.

Now’s there this faint

scent of a woman about me.

Yeah, yeah, I know,

yuck it up.

I smell like a sgirl

and now you’re

thinking about Al Pacino.

But this is loneliness talking.

And loneliness

has a French accent.

Least, that’s what I been told,

and other things like,

apparently, you might want

to be scentless in France.

But all I got is this blindness.

That’s all this man’s Army ever gave me.
