Here's |
|
To inhaling crushed bones |
|
through a dried up |
|
white out pen |
|
and riding the backwards racer |
|
in hot June rain |
|
in a matching blue and gold |
|
plastic bag / poncho / raincoat. |
|
It's a wooden coaster |
|
with a medium hill height mean, |
|
high hill to flat ground ratio |
|
you know I'd sell my shingles |
|
for a thimble dip of snow. |
|
Back then I'd've sold my single |
|
for a fingertip of glow. |
|
And us in navy blue hoodies |
|
and khakis, as was the style that year. |
|
In London, |
|
where the sirens yelp |
|
like a helpless dog |
|
with its paw stepped on, |
|
and the rain comes down in late July |
|
and the record labels call you Why? |
|
and your eyes are slits in bags of fat |
|
and your eyes are piss holes in the snow |
|
I swear, |
|
The riders on the tube |
|
tie razors to their elbows, |
|
The riders on the tube |
|
keep cold coal in their billfolds, |
|
The riders on the tube |
|
will hide cocaine in their shell toes, |
|
and yes yes yes man |
|
they'll novocaine their hello's |
|
Till the constables got pit bulls |
|
with their paw bones all stepped on |
|
Till the constables got pit bulls |
|
With crushed bones up their nose holes |
|
And us in fish net hat |
|
and canvas shoes, as was the style that year |
