Head to Herod

It’s time to sell the restaurant Invest all your money in gold I’ve been panning on the Potomac in-swing Where riches seem to elude me I’ve heard it’s more fertile in California Baby can we map this out A wise prophet once said to a river-crazed psycho You’re the only man that was listening And the only teacher teaching She said she loved dancing in the rain And I can’t think of anything more stupid to say to me She just parakeets Any tired thing I won’t give your head to Herod Severed on a plate And if I find some gold this winter I’ll gift you what I make I hope that shepherds pie Tastes like I would often taste And I’ll come and see you Drenched and muddy Shattered by the rain And I don’t care if you’re sober Don’t mind if you’re insane Crippled I shake my wet coat greeting I part my dripping hair A wise prophet once said to To a river-crazed psycho You’re the only man that was there And the rest are headed nowhere And she said That I ought to be ashamed And I can’t think of anything More perfect to say to me I have devolved into A very tired thing I won’t serve your head to Herod Severed on a plate And if I find some gold this winter I’ll keep all that I make And I hope that Sheperds pie Test just like I would never taste

Susquehanna 02:20
And I’m the one who loves you sporting ornamental virtue What you see is What you’ve let linger on And no matter how many pant suits Dissertations restaurant reviews I promise that they’ll always fucking Hate you And I’m the one who loves you A belly forever bouncing towards you A reaching arm grabbing dress fabric Pulling you straight from the carriage And you can hide In natures beautiful National parks And civic duties But your worthlessness Will always linger Like an angel A hovering Spirit With the Catholic Churches empty She’s taking off her top In a park garage Underneath the bar With her hand on my throbbing Erect and firm And then we started My sorrow is all I have left now And could you learn to love Through All of this treachery? And if I spit you out Will you still understand? And I suppose I’m pretty far From Susquehanna I supposed that’s pretty far From what we had But I’ll always be fine alone

One eye open You were not sleeping I aired my shoes in the yard While you were sobbing At my brothers wedding I was Twitchy and wandering I keep drilling holes In new rock bottoms And notes from the Basement Notes from the city And I’ve always suspected That I was a despicable man And friends are dying Better friends are dejected And I hear the hum of air conditioner Outside my window But here I lie Admiring murals From an old life A new despair And I know that I Could hardly Stand up straight But I hoped that wouldn’t matter And I know that I was Ill equipped To protect our love from Disaster But don’t you think that I Tried not to lose you?
