in
my recurring dream we have a daughter with a boyfriend
with a moustache with a taste for younger women, like our daughter
and he has this little habit when he tries to make a point, points
his finger
which if it had not been eaten by a table saw when he was 23
would really help to emphasize his point, instead we are distracted
by the
sight of the missing joint and no one hears a word he says...
in my recurring dream
in
my recurring dream i give a man a 20 dollar bill
'cause he likes smokey robinson and lives on the street, but still
will never confuse the temptations with the miracles
when he walks into the grocery and hears them on the radio
and i'm sad he's on the street, but glad he can feel the thrill
when "tracks of my tears" comes on and then "blueberry
hill"
so here's my 20 dollar bill...in my recurring dream
in
my recurring dream, and this one comes too often
there's a plane filled with people with carry-on coffins and
i don't know all the rules regarding karma, but i suspect that
when the good outweighs the bad,
some automatic self-protect should kick in
but here y'got this plane and as it starts to rise
i can see the panic in every pair of eyes and the
silent voices calling in slow motion, trapped and falling, falling...
wake up, you sleepy head - get up, get out of bed
cheer
up, the sun is overhead
