Alibilly
a/k/a Alibi Billy
was a hillbilly boy
from Kentucky
some called him lucky
cause he had
one big tooth
but when he spoke
not one word
was truth
YET
he could make you
laugh or cry
with every ALIBI
and here's why:
"I was conceived on the interstate
between chaos and confusion
The first word I spoke was "Illusion"
Mamma was named Spike
and Daddy was a Dilbert
Mamma never played tennis
but she loved BRAD GILBERT
Who done be he—might you ask—
but cre-8-ing answers
is my favor8 task
I have a sister named KOKO
who makes me laugh
cuz her chosen surname was GAFF
Cuter than apple pie
with one strawberry
she coulda been a song
written by Chuck Berry
The world loved her
before she ever had a lover
and every sporting magazine
put her on the cover
with her always holding
a tennis racket
...Don't knock it
cuz tennis a game with
a gazillion dollars
in its pocket
And Wimbey Done
is its heart and locket
But strawberries and cream
shattered KOKO'S dream
when she got de-feeted
in the first round
and that volume-N-us sound
of defeet could be heard in Heaven
where the Gods cried while munching
turkey burgers at the 7/11
But I gave comfort
to my sister Koko
with some pull and much pushing
"Don't worry Sis, [said me]
think of the meadow in Flushing."
New York, that is
and you will be
the opposite of bad
when you worship
at the throne of Uncle Brad
Gilbert, that is
