lyrics

There's a bird lying in a bath tub in a cabin on the lake
his hoarse valves are whining above the green and white mountains
a rope caught in a loop
on the shelf are horns and talons with numbered tags

And mildew photos of a baby in blue
blubbering initials on scribbles, finger paintings, potato skins
ear marked fable with an eyelash from when he was sick
plucking feathers from pores as the Amonea curdles in the sink

Electrical storm
lighting at the bottom of the lake
in the backseat a hose drawn from the muffler
claiming to be ambitious as the car rolled down the hill
but right now he'd much rather
sleep

He walks back up the Hill awaiting the fans pretty voice
and Mosquitoes in their parachutes fly by ears like cars on a highway
Turning to the left, there's a sound from the tree line
its a man snoring beer in his throat
and beside him a bandana
in the mouth of some unsung shape
I'll wait to see if they are there in the morning

The friendly ghost have told me they are scared
they say this is called a revolving nightmare
I toss and turn, they never give me
they never give me bread and water in my sleep.
