My girl lives on a street
Named after a tree
I'm gonna climb her
Roost in her canopy
My girl
Lives on
A street
Named after
A tree

We’ve all falled short
Like a tree blowed down
In that bad storm
That hit the neighbors house
And missed the main structure
But smashed the sunroom flat
So for the six months past
You’ve been pulling shards of glass
Out of tomatoes and peppers
You grow every summer
To give to family and friends
You don’t want them to think
You’re trying to hurt em
And you know they’ll say
You’ve got astray
Of the glory of god

There's a stone cross underneath a tree
And a figurine I know’s not but I call a kewpie
And a name chiseled in immortalized I can't read
Cause it's so far off not to mention the speed
As I drive by
The traffic was at a standstill due to construction
Of a totally unnecessary brand new police station
And everyday for weeks I’ve had a clear view
But the name on the cross is never legible
As I drive by

Catty Corner
02:13
|

|
I'd do anything for you
Well maybe that's not true
But there's plenty of things I do
For you, babe
Like I'd talk to the neighbor
That lives catty corner
And plays the worst fucking music
Too loud all night and day
After all, ain't that the meaning of love?
It's the little things I think of
I'd do anything for you
Well maybe that's not true
But there's plenty of things I do
For you, babe
Like I'd sleep in at your house
While you're up making coffee
But I'd run to the grocery store later
If I drank the rest of your cream
After all, ain't that the meaning of love?
It's the little things I think of

Stargazer Ego Death
01:48
|
|||
|
It's getting pretty late and I
Think that I should go
I'm worried about my lifetime
Undulating numbers I can't know
My ego dies with the stars
As they disappear with my glasses off
Light-years measure distance we must be
Far apart with the conversation so cold

Water Cycle
02:00
|
|||
|
As I walk through the park
I chew ice from a styrofoam cup
And I think of all the places
That ice might have come from
I could be eating the iceberg that sunk the Titanic
Or water flooding the Estonia out in the Baltic
Or maybe water from the hull of the Mary Celeste
Abandoned in the Atlantic
I conclude it's best to let the cycle continue
And throw the half-full cup of ice toward a trashcan
Where the styrofoam turns to shrapnel
As it smashes into the outside
And the ice spreads out across the Earth
A found lost treasure of diamonds
And pearls

Just a Little Joke
00:36
|
|||
|
And why would I be
The pot calling the kettle black
When I could be the john
That's calling the cougar mellencamp

All Roads Lead to Clifty
02:12
|
|||
|
On the interstate
I followed a yellow moon
But it turned out to be
A fast food marquee
Still I followed the path it had laid out
And found myself in Clifty
With some friends out at Beaver Lake
Taking turns jumpin Lover's Leap
Then a misstep- someone hits the ground
For help I ran all the way to Clifty
All roads
All roads lead to
All roads
All roads lead to Clifty

Bettin the Ponies
01:44
|
|||
|
I feel a little chickenshit
Can’t get myself to wage high bets
Money don't grow on trees
It’s made of cotton and exploitative practices
And I’ve got a 401k
That I'm just waiting to have stolen by a bank
Bettin makes me feel like I have control
Not just digging a bigger hole
I’ve got me a job with a decent pay
Making $2 over the minimum wage
So I’m just scraping by
Waiting for Kentucky Derby day
