Cape Canaveral |
| Oh, oh, oh brother totem pole |
| I saw your legends lined up |
| And I never felt more natural |
| Apart, I just came apart |
| Please, please, please sister Socrates |
| You always answer with a question |
| Show some kindness to a petty thief |
| Forgive, you did forgive |
| Saw the migrants smoke in the old orange grove |
| And the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral |
| You’ve been a father to me |
| In 1960's speak |
| In the comatose joy that we’re on TV |
| While the mountain’s side was shining |
| Wild colors of my destiny |
| I watched your face age backwards |
| Changing shape in my memory |
| You told me victory’s sweet |
| Even deep in the cheap seats |
| Hey, hey, hey mother interstate |
| Can you deliver me from evil |
| Make me honest make me wedding cake |
| Atone, I will atone |
| Wait, wait, wait mighty outer-space |
| All that flying saucer terror |
| Made me lazy drinking lemonade |
| A waste, it just went to waste |
| Like the Freon cold out the hotel door |
| Or the white rocket fade over Cape Canaveral |
| You’ve been a daughter to me |
| Your buried shoe-box grief |
| I felt your poltergeist love like savannah heat |
| While the waterfall was pouring |
| Crazy symbols of my destiny |
| I watched your face die backwards |
| Little baby in my memory |
| A lonely victory sweet |
| Even deep in the cheap seats |
| And you don’t judge me |
| That’s not your style |
| But I won’t see you for a little while |
| And there’s no worries |
| Whose got time |
| All these changes are going to fill your mind |
| Like the citrus glow off the old orange grove |
| Or the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral |
| It’s been a nightmare to me |
| Some 1980's grief |
| Gives me parachute dreams |
| Like old war movies |
| While the universe was drawn |
| Perfect circles form infinity |
| Saw the stars get smaller |
| Tiny diamonds in my memory |
| I know that victory is sweet |
| Even deep in the cheap seats |
