Another Horsedreamer's Blues |
Margery’s dreaming of the middle of the day |
Tiyuri to win |
Perfect Dozen to place |
Money is the matter that’s been on her mind |
Time ticks by her one race at a time |
She’s trying' to be a good girl |
And give 'em what they want |
But Margery’s dreaming of horses |
Looking' at a green sky |
Sun like a red eye |
Bright blue horses are the fortune she lives by |
She’s tired and lonely |
Scared and depressed |
Her visions of one day go racing the next |
She’s trying to be a good girl |
And give 'em what they want |
But Margery’s dreaming of horses |
Margery doesn’t say anything all the way home |
So afraid she’ll awake to find she’s all alone |
Margery’s wingspan’s all feathers and coke cans, and |
TV dinners and letters she won’t send, and |
Every race night is shot through with sunlight |
Trying to hit the big one one last time tonight for… |
Drunken fathers and stupid mothers and |
Boys who can’t tell one girl from another |
So she takes her pills |
Careful and round |
One of these days she’s gonna throw the whole bottle down |
But she’s trying to be a good girl |
And give 'em what they want |
But Margery’s dreaming of… |
Trying to be a good girl |
And give 'em what they want |
But Margery’s dreaming of horses |
