Not literal
God, never literal
It may be anything but literal

Don't, please, talk literal
You can be cryptical
Or fancifully subliminal,
Imaginatively invincible
But for God's sake no literals!

Be general, and always promptly sensible
Be reversible and laughable
And surely but of course be laudable
Always audible but not literal, no, never literal,

Have a fit for a while
Just fucking make me smile
All your while be edible,
Unforgettable, mystical and magical,
Don't talk tragical or hysterical or be so infuriatingly
Emotional!

Light a smoke
Tell a joke
Smoke some dope
You may even mope
But don't gimme the straights,
I don't wanna know
And now, sorry, hon, but I gotta go
Cause you're gettin' so liberal with your god-damn litter-all!
