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 |
