Lyrics
Jonestown Kool-Aid
By Peter Kern
There's chronic melancholia hanging from the trees
The sooner it's removed, the better off we'll be
Abundant is the harvest, the bushel empties fast
Introspections uttered cannot be taken back
Testicles and genitals, a bull’s eye on the crotch
You don’t know who I am, but you do know who I'm not

The jaws of life indentured have pity on the slave
Battle scars may heal, but they never go away
Manic Polar Ice Cream from a Hypertensive Freeze
Lick it fast and plenty it will put your heart at ease
Even keel is cool, shock absorption on the brain
Anything at all that's disconnected from the pain

Blunders cloud the memory of our champions once supreme
Behold their lifeless carcasses then pick them bones but clean
Resurrection for erections from inside the tigers paw
Blonde headed insufficients now enforce the lemon law 
Iphone tapped out mamas, auditioning for new dads
Unemployed but unannoyed yet unaffected is the fad

Home front slicked up homeboys hammer slamming High School chicks
Down low low down stripped-down Jonestown Kool-Aid spurting dicks
Torrential rains they inundate when you’ve finally cleaned the car
Then the Pale Horse greets the reaper at the crossing of the bar
Much better to die upright than to live upon your knees
Believe nothing that you hear and only half of what you see

Darkness disrespect's us then with vengeance steals the soul
Another place a better chance? Heaven only knows

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, ibandstanders one and all, I've just taken a journey into the realm of 'Johnstown Kool Aid,' a tune that echoes the poetic prowess of the legendary Bob Dylan. The vivid imagery and thought-provoking lyrics in this song create a tapestry of introspection and societal observation. The chronic melancholia hanging from the trees sets the tone for a song that's unafraid to delve into the complexities of life. Clay paints a picture of a world where battles leave scars that may heal but never truly fade away. The use of metaphors, like 'Manic Polar Ice Cream' and 'Blonde-headed insufficients enforcing the lemon law,' adds layers to the narrative, inviting listeners to contemplate the deeper meanings. 'Believe nothing that you hear and only half of what you see'—wise words woven into the fabric of this poetic composition. 'Johnstown Kool Aid' is a journey through the shadows and light of existence, a reflection on the human condition with a Dylan-esque touch but it's all Clay Potts, don't forget that. So, if you're ready for a lyrical experience that challenges the mind and stirs the soul, give a listen to 'Johnstown Kool Aid.' And download it for future reflection. It's a testament to the enduring power of storytelling in music. Ole Dick was here

So I’m working thru your stuff… the first thing that is obvious is that you care about the lyric and you have plenty to say, of course we have these treasures in jars of clay… but I get it
