50 Gallon Drum |
My idea of heaven, I enjoy the fixing of a flat tire |
I like art made of garbage, a little pain is good for you |
I don’t want everything to be made easy for me |
Fast ain’t always better than slow you know |
A home run every time would start to get boring after a while |
I hope I never forget how to bleed |
Static fuzz, hiss, it’s just the thing sometimes |
50 gallon drum, that’s what I’m talking about |
Give me a hundred bucks to work on your bike |
And maybe I’ll cut your hair for you while I’m at it |
I wanna work, I’m ready, I wanna take my baby dancing |
Scary movies on Monday morning, chopping some wood, wind in my tires |
Chocolate chip cookies, rain in the window, it’s the underneath of Paris |
It’s New York from the back, Mount Uniacke in the fall |
In a moment between heartbeats I’ll set fire to the sky |
Or cut the devil’s throat |
I’m three for four with a double and two stolen bases |
Having my picture taken with the Amazing Creskin |
It’s a shiny day and the dogshit smells like strawberries |
I found a shoebox filled with viewmaster reels |
I don’t have to cut my hair or do math ever again if I don’t want to |
Tell the bounty collectors to kiss my ass |
I’m a hunter gatherer surveying the junk yards |
Warrior monk with a month long bus pass |
Odd job casanova, I write nothing down and keep my clothes in a guitar case |
I run with bulls and swim with the pool sharks |
Perfection is a place where there are two for one milkshakes on Tuesdays |
It’s where you can pay for a room with your good looks |
The ball parks are always busy and the umpires always make the right call |
Everyday is halloween and people use plastic Christmas trees |
They fight with their fists and go to drive-in movies |
There’s no such thing as luck or the dentist and shoes don’t hurt your feet |
I keep a lighter and dog treats |
In my pockets at all times because you never know |
I’ve got a Saint Francis of Assisi keychain |
And a wallet made of Corinthian leather |
Sometimes I drive all night and listen to talk radio |
Sometimes I practice scratching for hours on end |
Usually I sit in my window and listen to my tapes, I’ve got all kinds of tapes |
Hugs and kisses, and treats in a bag |
In paradise a buck will buy you a comic book, a soda and a candy bar |
You can always find a place to park or to hide |
The DJs only play originals and the theatres still have silver screens |
And Buster Keaton matinees |
I’m an outlaw faith healer, with sock monkeys for the kids |
I’m the ringmaster-king of the convenience store parking lot |
My show is an every man for himself freak fest |
Pack a lunch and ask for Johnny Rockwell |
Here your favorite pen works forever but memory parallax |
It’s 70's doing 20's, 50's doing 2000 |
Everyone’s got their own arrow and there ain’t no short handled shovels |
It’s under my pillow, it’s tomorrow and the next day |
