This is a real poem by BO himself from college:

“Sitting in his seat, a seat broad and broken / In, sprinkled with ashes, / Pop switches channels, takes another / Shot of Seagrams, neat, and asks / What to do with me, a green young man / Who fails to consider the / Flim and flam of the world, since / Things have been easy for me.” The second, “Underground,” offers a vivid if obscurely symbolic description of a tribe of submarine primates. An exemplary few lines go, “Under water grottos, caverns / Filled with apes / That eat figs. / Stepping on the figs / That the apes / Eat, they crunch.”

Credit Card Blues??

Wasn’t “kill my landlord” part of an Eddie Murphy-SNL sketch circa 1984?

Umm-ummmh aeoh! Umm-uoomh!
Ooh! Oh! Uh uh!.
Aaah. Uoh, aah!
Let it go!

Got a pain down inside,
won’t be denied.
Yeah, every time I try,
I can’t be satisfied.
Let it go! Woah, ummh!
Let it, let it go! Oh! Waaaoooh!
This pain down inside,
just won’t let me be satisfied.
Let it go!

Splash!!! Spshhh....
Feel, ah, I feel alright!
Yeah, I feel alright!
Splash!!! Shpsh...Yeah.
I feel alright!
Splash! Flush! Phew. Phew. Phew...
Feel alright!

I live in a shanty in the shantytown.
We have no money so we had to sleep on the ground.
I played the music. My father he dig a ditch.
My mother she do laundry life sure was a bitch.

But ‘till we killed the white people. Ooh we gun make them hurt.
Kill the white people yea. But buy my record first.
Ooh yea. Why don’t you buy my record?

We sing of freedom and ooh equality.
But we really don’t care we just want money money money.
We want to drive in a big black limosine.
Get so high off ganja we cant even see.
and then we kill the white people. Ooh we gunna make them hurt.
Kill the white people. Yea. Ooh but buy my record first ooh.

When u go in the record store. We gunna wait outside.
We gunna hit them in the head with a bat and make them cry.
but ‘till we kill the white people.
Yea but buy my record first.

I’m gonna get me a shotgun...
...and kill all the whities I see,
I’m gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see.
When I kill all the whities I see, then whitey he won’t bother me,
I’m gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see.

Dark and lonely on a summer’s night
Kill my landlord
Kill my landlord
Watchdog barking
Do he bite?
Kill my landlord
Kill my landlord
Slip in his window
Break his neck
Then his house
I start to wreck
Got no reason
What the heck
Kill my Landlord
Kill my landlord
C-I-L-L
my l a n d l o r d
