Otis and Marlena |
Marlena under Foster Grants |
She’s undercover from the dawns advance |
That girl is travel-drained |
And the neon mercury vapor stained |
Miami sky |
It’s red as meat |
It’s a cheap pink rose |
Otis in the driver’s seat |
Watches the street lights fade away |
On louvered blocks in green sea air |
In fluorescent fossil yards |
Slippers are shuffling into folding chairs |
Freckled hands are shuffling cards |
They’ve come for fun and sun |
While Muslims stick up Washington … |
Otis empties out the trunk |
On the steps of that celebrated dump |
Sleazing by the sea |
Bow down to her royal travesty-- |
In her ballrooms heads of state-- |
In her bedrooms rented girls-- |
Always the grand parades of cellulite |
Jiggling to her golden pools |
Through flock and cupid colonnades |
They jiggle into surgery |
Hopefully beneath the blade |
They dream of golden beauty … |
They’ve come for fun and sun |
While Muslims stick up Washington … |
Marlena, white as stretcher sheet |
Watches it all from her 10th floor balcony |
Like it’s her opera box |
All those Pagliacci summer frocks |
Otis is fiddling with the TV dial |
All he gets are cartoons and reruns |
She taps her glass with an emery file |
Watching three rings in the sun |
The golden dive, the fatted flake |
And sizzle in the mink oil |
It’s all a dream |
She has awake |
Checked into Miami Royal |
Where they’ve come for fun and sun |
While Muslims hold up Washington … |
Dream on |
Dream on |
Dream on |
Dream on |
Dream on |
