my auntie eleanor had a very unhappy husband

who hated his job and hated his life

so he wanted to drive his tan Chevy

off of a bridge because he hated his car and he hated his life

he couldn’t silence the ever present thought

“i’m doing all I can yet i’m an unsuccessful man”

and his heart was blank

don’t we know what blank people are good for

what they are good for

my auntie eleanor had a very unhappy husband

who just couldn’t escape or catch a break

so he wanted to ride his bike blindfolded into traffic

because he hated his bike and he hated his life

his heart was consumed with guilt from the knowledge

he had not become a successful man he was an unsuccessful man

and his heart was blank

don’t we know what blank people are good for

what they are good for

until one day my Auntie introduced him to her friend named gwendoline

and she must have made a stunning first impression

because he left my Auntie and never came back again leaving with gwendoline

but my Auntie didn’t care

she knew she could find another blank husband anywhere

by god they’re everywhere

my auntie eleanor had a very unhappy husband
