fast forward .. I missed dolly and alline

life's fate sometimes seems rather cruel

life is for the living .. i'm nobody's fool

kilo and frenchman made it back home

rented a house .. started a commune

they'd asked me to move in

help was needed with the rent

I decided to stay a few nights

to see what things would be like

it didn't take long for me to find out

I mean .. there were lots of hippies there

eighteen to be exact .. none paying rent

don't dare ask me how it had happened

I ended up staying there with lovely alline

predictably .. steve was staying there too

God damnit .. first morning I woke up

freaks were knocked out everywhere

wall to wall .. body piled upon body

I swear I thought I was at a fucking zoo

as I got up stumbling .. tripping over them

I woke kilo .. his eyes a strange, striped red

told him fuck you .. i'm not staying here

innocent .. spitting and slobbering, sorry

I told him .. fuck you, again and again

finally he sputtered he'd get rid of them

alline and I left for the entire day

cruised around town .. went and shot pool

then on to the river .. drank some beer

picked up a kilo .. drove back over there

relief .. lots of hardcore freaks were gone

that night we all got stoned high

kilo's older brother .. van, was there

he just looked crazy in his strange eyes

next morning I woke to alline screaming

while we'd been sound asleep for hours

van had drawn occult symbols on her head

beyond pacifying .. I was going to kick his ass

frenchman, randy and kilo had to hold me back

van had even stabbed a toy doll .. painted blood

dripping from the doll's eye he'd also stabbed

I took alline by the hand .. we got the fuck out
