buried ruins where the train tracks lie
stray cats sleeping near the columns at night
flowered walls and the cobblestone hallways
she sits, near the river and waits
aparcería went to 4am
brother’s working he’s your only friend
a fall from grace touching down on the floor
poni’s en route, radio 10-4
can you stop the spin, can you shut the lights
they’ll never understand the chemical fights
can you breathe the air, won’t you hold my hair
and sing to me all the times you gave up on
those college preps and the sidewalk steps
a Germanic cause chalked up to a loss
**just in time to change their minds
fabled stories never bore any fruit
some refugees will never fill out a suit
a tragic case mistaken for a snowflake
in the sun, she sits and waits
will you stop the rain, will you block the sun
and close the door on this sad excuse for fun
will you touch my hair, will you stay right there
and wait for all the signs to come at once
from the polished brass and a dust clean floor
with a broken rib that still feels sore
**no more time to change their minds
summer swelter back in ’89
laid out and stoned, we couldn’t read the signs
the Romans left, they didn’t clean up the mess
a Spanish Tomboy wasn’t like the rest
the melody drove on a Lydian scale
paranoid skies with a thick contrail
soaking up the oil with a Merca bar
the separatist kids never made it too far
processed meat, your papers are all fine
older she gets, the more she loves the wine
go to the back of the track with the horses
sweetheart deal from the left this of course is
