Analysis of Compilation #2

Brittany Wilson 1988 (Milwaukee, WI)



No Justice, No Peace

Houses getting shot at
Children dying from stray bullets
Cops are shooting their guns off & they abuse their authoritative power
No Justice, No Peace

I fell in love with a rainbow on a rainy day
& sat on the edge of the dock of the bay
With a teddy bear after i milked a cow
After a crow spotted me & I'm scared right now.

I Do What I Like, Dammit: An Ode To Steve-O

Don't Fart in the bed...I Do What I Like, Dammit!!!
Don't blow up toilet...I Do What I Like, Dammit!!!
Don't fart on your niece's head...I Do What I Like, Dammit!!!
Don't fart in your niece's bed...I Do What I Like, Dammit!!!
Dont fart in your niece's face...I Do What I Like, Dammit!!!

My friend Steve-O says this everytime i tell him i'm going to Anna's house overnight...That's my guy!!! Here's to you, Steve-O!!!

Muddy landslides are fun but they’re dirty & rough...Life is like a muddy landslide, right? Life can totally be rocky & dirty, depending on how wet the dirt feels beneath our feet as we walk down that road. A muddy landslide can be used as a testimonial guide to help others through their own landslides & they can also be used as life lessons.

If I can testify to life's muddy landslides, you can too.
