this blue dot of sickly light
|
that is daytime in your embarassed town
|
burns a hole in the fading yellow ribbon
|
on your fading wine colored Cavaliere
|
|
the mine has fallen down on you
|
as you dug a well of death
|
milk and sugar water
|
in brief sympathy with them
|
|
when we see the hate in your eyes
|
it doesn't make us better men
|
the mine has crushed your brother
|
as he ruined our rotting sky
|
a white blast of black hot powder
|
as you lapse into a real boy
|
|
the mine has fallen down on you
|
as you dug a well of death
|
tears of sugar water flow
|
in briefest sympathy with them
|
|
should you be ashamed for more than that?
|
than that your daddy raped you silly
|
leaning my head on the refrigerator
|
crying for the stupid world we share
|
|
walla walla walla walla walla walla walla hey
|
