Heavy Water

I walked out in the city night
A burning in my eyes, like it was broad daylight
And it was hot, down there in the crowd
The stars went out behind a thunder cloud
Chatter in the air, like a telegraph line
Big drops hissing on the neon sign
Thumping in my heart, and it’s hurting me to see
Smokestack blowing, now they’re pouring
Heavy water on me
She was a southern girl.
we stared man to man
I move like a stranger in this strange land
She was a round hole, I was a square peg
I watched the little black specks running down her leg
Didn’t seem to mind that dirty rain coming down ---
Shirt hanging open.
she was wet and brown
Thumping in my heart, and it’s hurting me to see
Smokestack blowing, now they’re pouring
Heavy water on me
What goes up has to fall back down
It’s no night to be out dancing in a party town
When it runs hot and it runs so wide ---
Running in the street like a thin black tide
Chatter in the air, like a telegraph line
Big drops hissing on the neon sign
Thumping in my heart, and it’s hurting me to see
Smokestack blowing, now they’re pouring
Heavy water on me
