Time, time, it's so sublime
Well they say it's non-existent
but it's playing with my mind
Some people do it,
Some see right through it
Some wear po-jama's
If only they knew it!
Mom and dad I'm sorry,
Mom and dad don't worry
I'm not the son you wanted-
what did you expect?
I made my world of hapiness
to corabat your neglect
My smile is stuck
I cannot go back to your frownland
A prickly line of sweat covers enthusiast's forehead as
the realization hits him that the same government
him and his now dead neighbor voted for and backed
and talked of on cream porches
have tricked him into their war against the people
who enthusiast and dead hunter would have wished torture on
a servant of government walks in and arrests wireless fan in
kitchen for murder of his neighbor
I'm tired of looking
Out the window of the airplane
I'm tired of traveling
I want to be somewhere
This isn't some kind of metaphor...
Goddamn, this is real!
I'm waiting for a postcard that you won't write
Just hoping there's a chance that you might
Well Jesus was married on the cross
My father was married to my mother
And I am married to a cigarette butt
Lying in the gutter
Then Richard, Richard said:
"Hey man, let's dress up like cops
Just think of what we could do"
But something, something said,
You better not
Have you heard about this house?
Inside, a thousand voices talk
and that talk echoes around and around
The windows reverberate
The walls have ears
A thousand saxophone voices talk
