Sure--come to the beach they cried

 

Come to the beach! they yelled at me

come and play on the sand

two-thousand years later

i'm a salty old man

Damn

there you are

i missed you

you hissed me

but i love you, baby

i always will

In Due Time

Detective Neptune

will write his play

But first he must

meditate

***

Sure, Openly Mock Detective Neptune

Bite me.

Detective Neptune Sings in Court

if you could ever catch the criminal

who flew down from upon high

you would find out pretty quickly

god has no alibi

if you brought about the charges

found a witness who could cry

the jury would discover

god has no alibi

not separate from sorrow

not aloof and never shy

still it might surprise you

god has no alibi

something heavy

something light

sometimes darkness

sometimes light

mysterious tremendum

out of here and out of sight

out of sight

out of sight

good night

if you wanted justice, poor you

ain't no answers, only sighs

the baliff sweats upon the bible

god has no alibi

when the choir sings to heaven

their songs all upon high

coming down would be the gavel

god has no alibi

you can visit god in prison

maybe then you'll find out why

for the crime of not existing

god has no alibi

for the crime of not existing

god has no alibi

something heavy

something light

sometimes darkness

sometimes light

mysterious tremendum

out of here and out of sight

out of sight

out of sight

good night

Namaste, Neptune, Namaste

The Play's the Thing

you sit on your throne

with a fish on your fork

and bellow and chortle and hack

a king of the waves

and undersea caves

pray, won't you come back?
