Nah Nah Nanette,

Where are you, Nanette?

Is there anybody in here?

Is any fascist safe in a world of freedom,

rules of law, shudder cheese on dey coleslaw?

Or am I dealing with a comfortable numbskull?)

Of course, those Coney Island hotdog nitrates will kill you in the end.

.

The only thing that kept johnny g alive

(that's me, if you believe the hype)

all those thin fatwa years

was his gallo sense of humor

(we will sell, we will serve

no divine before its time:

jeez, what we'll do in life to rhyme)

gallo skidrow humor
