James Riot

My name is James
James Riot is who I am
I am the rock
Of the fancified world I am
I store the answers of my game
Sharpens my pick and cramp
I am the bastard
Naked before the bitch
I am the beast
under wrap on the frazzled spit
Know you ??? mind your mark
I'll see you writhe and twitch
I am up against the wall
????
Courage in the clothes we bought
This is where the next show falls
????????
