Peace Beneath the City |
Here’s a prayer for the body buried by the interstate |
Mother of a soldier, a tree in a forest up in flames |
Black valley, peace beneath the city |
Where the women hear the washboard rhythm in their bosom when they say |
Give me Good legs |
And a Japanese car |
And show me a road |
Sing a song for the bodies buried by the riverbank |
A well dressed boy and a pig with a bullet in the brain |
Black valley, peace beneath the city |
Where the white girls wander the strip mall, singing all day |
Give me A juggernaut heart |
And a Japanese car |
And someone to free |
Say something for the body buried like a keepsake |
Mother of a million mouths with the very same name |
Black valley, peace beneath the city |
Where the women tell the weather but never ever tell you what they pray |
They pray give me A yellow brick road |
And a Japanese car |
And benevolent change |
