Kids All Over Hell

Shrewsbury Sentinel Factory children's party (Geoff Charles, 1950)

So anyway, we drove over

to that main drag there

and there’s a bank

and well everything looks closed

and where in the Sam hell?

We’re in the middle of nowhere.

We walk past the VFW

I thought we were goin to the VFW

and we get to some little shop,

like an individual

an individual individualized 

little shop

—a bakery!—

Well, we still don’t know 

what the hell’s goin on.

We walk into that shop and

BOOM!—

The lights turn on

and there’s all kindsa people,

must’ve been twenty,

twenty-five people there—

your sister’s friends,

Adam called all of ‘em.

And kids all over Hell,

and there was a smorgasbord.
