Francisco Jancairo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz
Was a guy who knew more about what was not what than what was –
Sometimes he let it alone
Mostly he slunk around home –
Sometimes he slunk around down at the corner salon –
–
Now the corner saloon was a shack in a ricmarac town –
He walked until he was out front then he threw himself down –
The town was afraid of the dark –
And down at the corner park –
Our boy had the seat of his pants by the school of the yard –
–
Now Francisco Jancairo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz-
Was the fifth of five kids, all Barocius Bareshis Bechoz-
One fell off of a train
Two got dropped from a plane-
The fourth was Carmel SanCarlo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz-
–
She said honey you know pretty soon, well, like, its gonna seem –
You and me oughta once pick up and take some kind of extreme –
It’s good to do it with someone –
Sometime do it with me –
If the first time don’t make it the second might could just be better –
–
One night Carmel SanCarlo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz-
Checked on her e-mail two or three times just because –
One was from Tajikistan –
Some guy selling raspberry jam –
And some web cam girls sticking dynamite inside themselves in Japan –

Now Francisco Jancairo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz-
Loved Carmel SanCarlo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz
She heard something out of the lawn-
She ran and turned her machine on –
And here is the message, the note that came up on the screen –
–
If I could travel all around
The universe, and I could go
From galaxy to galaxy –
And I could visit every planet –
And on every planet I would
Have one girl, and I would
Take her out where and whenever
I was flying by that planet –
You would be my Earth girl –
You would be my Earth girl –
You would be my Earth girl –
You would be my Earth girl –
–
Now Christian Nykeba San Carlo Jancairo Barocius Bareshis Bechoz
Came to town one Saturday night –
One Januray 12th –

He found in the dust –
In the red dust you’ll find –
If you travel southeast of Socorro
He found Carlina Bareshis Bechoz –
Making sauce out of seis pomodoro
–
He walked up to her as she sat on the ground –
He gave her sugary sweets he had found –
And he sang what he said and he said what he sang –
He took off his shirt and he flung it around –
He said you are my Earth girl –
You are my Earth girl –
You are my Earth girl –
You are my Earth girl
