Somerton |
| Church lets wino sleep |
| Never asks him to leave |
| Plants a tent; |
| calls it home |
| He uses pews to hang clothes |
| Rescue dog you can’t train |
| Although you saved him from rain |
| Rescue dog still lies |
| And plays loose with your life |
| Rescue dog begs and comes |
| Slips his collar and runs |
| A neighbor you let in |
| And you lend him your things |
| He quotes Bible verse |
| Absconds with your purse |
| A treaty you sign |
| And trust that it binds |
| On ink it holds birch |
| Though no man to his word |
| I was all that was left |
| I wanted to hide |
| But there’s no shelter |
| When thoughts envelop |
| What a time for me |
| I did whatever I pleased |
| Write the song to be sad |
| Or get sad to write the song |
| Let the cat in the bed |
| Or make him sleep in the barn |
| Bad ideas indulged |
| He left bones and skulls |
| Future fucks all of us |
| Hell’s too much involved |
| Who puts a hand out to me |
| Gently pulls on a string |
| I’d break any trust |
| I can ruin anything |
