Lifetime Sentence |
A ceiling fan can’t make a man |
Make a change in plans or give a fuck |
I think I am the one that you want to see things through with |
Rebel academics with delirious souls |
Jeff Foxworthy in a serious role |
We’re making resumes out of things we’d really rather not screw with |
Things a ceiling fan ain’t had nuthin' to do with |
Now the morning dawn is dripping in |
The morning doves in song again |
How could I have been so irresponsible with my time |
Gossip stops at the top of the hill |
Wage strike at the rumor mill |
You ask me straight if I will love you, I say that I will try |
The dawn is terminal with doves now |
Their song sounds like a cover of mine |
But it takes a long time for me, babe |
Just to fake it in the light of day |
There’s a styrofoam Big Gulp waiting on your gravestone |
Say it to me kindly |
You had the face of a whorehouse clock |
When we learned that the case was a courthouse flop |
The jury is erased with a swing of a wand |
Earth ages in a cosmic mirror |
It all seems like a lifetime sentence ago |
A ceiling fan can’t make a man |
Make him whole again or even half |
I think I walk the path with which you’d like your path to blend |
Broodmares immaculate defeat |
Easter bunch at the O.T.B |
Where you can lead a horse to the finish line but you but cannot make it win |
The fridge is terminal with save the dates |
From all my since-divorcee friends |
The evening dusk is sinking in |
The evening dust swept up again |
The air conditioner hums and the doves they sing to the tune |
Edibles and lipstick |
Edibles and lipstick |
Faded popes in an imitation triptych |
All the thoughts you fit inside one room |
You’ve unconsigned yourself and not a minute too soon |
But it takes a long time for you |
To learn to fake it in the nighttime too |
There’s a styrofoam Big gulp waiting on your grave |
You can see it when the light shines through |
And it takes a long time for the message to break |
You can feel it inside when the ceiling fan aches |
The fury is erased with the swing of a wand |
Earth ages in a cosmic mirror |
It all seems like a lifetime sentence ago |
