lyrics

Oh, you’re a misplaced Texas woman.
I’m the homeless man
on winter holiday.
Please forgive me,
but I hate how every day
the dawn is certain.
“Out of my way!”
I’m yelling at the curtains.
On the outskirts of a posse…
On the edges of a one-bedroom war…
In the whisper
between the windows and the door,
that’s where you’ll find me.
When you sweep the floor
just sweep behind me.
Wintertime,
I think of calypso.
Summers I wish for snow.
When you’re around
you kind of bug me
but when you’re gone, I feel so low.
Two in the morning,
I stagger back to you
drunk on waffles, Texas toast,
and home fries.
My right pocket
holds a left-field surprise:
cheap plastic jewelry.
Behind my eyes,
there lies tomfoolery.
Behind my eyes,
there lies tomfoolery.
