0:00The obscenity prayer. Our falter whose art is heavy, Halloween be thy name, your kingdoms numb, your children dumb on earth, moldy bread unleavened. Give us this day our wayward dead, and give us our asses as we forgive those who ass against us, and speed us not into went nation, nor be quiver us with needles. For thine is the plim-flam and the sour and the same fucking story in leather for never and ever. Ah, gin.
