Mount Jim 02:50
She climbed and climbed upon Mount Jim He’s proud he’s tall, she worshipped him She planted her flag upon his head And this is what everyone said “Oh Jim, oh Jim, you mountain man You can do what no others can She came she saw, she conquered you And now you have conquered her too” She made her home upon Mount Jim He’s proud he’s tall, she skis down him And when his snow begins to melt She migrates south, below the belt It’s as if he awaits us all To climb Mount Jim, so proud so tall Like she had done, she came she saw We too shall climb before we fall

Baby X 07:36
Baby X was left in bucket In the projects west side of town Christ the Savior gave Mommy labor She called his name, he wasn’t ‘round Mother Mary, she was no virgin It’s just her luck had run its course God had blessed her with bastard baby And life just went from bad to worse Stormin’ Norman was her hero He won a medal in the war She wrote him letters, “Baby, I’m pregnant” He never answered the fuckin’ whore He deserted the unwed mother And re-enlisted in the corps She delivered the bastard baby In the kitchen on the floor The welfare mother and her crack baby Were both addicted, no one’s to blame In the bucket went the baby No more sorrow, no more shame She fought off all maternal instincts And baptized baby with her fists She was arrested for desertion Her only medal surrounds her wrists Baby X was left in bucket In the projects west side of town Christ the Savior gave Mommy labor She called his name, he wasn’t ‘round Uncle Sam and Uncle Jesus Partners in crimes for what they stole One had taken away her soul mate The other settled for just her soul
