Verse 1/Refrain:
Like a red state's Baptist fervor,
like a small town's unsolved murder.
Some secrets are just best resting
in the tombs of buried thought-slums.
As for Texas: Donuts Only.
You cannot find bagels here.
And I'll reserve my highest hosannah's
for the communion song that's served with light beer,
and a chorus that inspires the score played in my myth-steeped years

Verse 2:
"There's a hole you shan't fall into"
Sang the church choir's young male leads.
In the home-team jersey robes
sewn by our sisters, moms and nieces.
This you gave us, although worthless
fed five decades' dormant hustle.
In result: His life was rubbish.
Celebrated? Yes, but rubbish.
