am darling sun

give us the news
were you on the muse?
or was the muse on top of me?
and so licked, washed, and combed
by street dogs. good boy!
prick up your ears for me!
jagged stars and formaldehyde views
make this city seen
but you and i are on the country tit
so what they spill, we wean
the blast of a radio
in a faded photograph
quite simply, my dear
you are the dawn’s laugh
give us some room there isn’t much around here
give us some room there ain’t so much around here
give us some room there isn’t so much
give us some room there isn’t so much
give us some room there ain’t so much
around here
for one, you are the feel of every sofa to come
my a.m. darlin’ sun
my a.m. darlin’ sun
for one you are the shape of all my jazz to come
my a.m. darlin’ sun
my a.m. darlin’ sun
give us your news, give us the ruse
they're handing us a spade
your life’s a mess they harangue
and the rest has been mislaid
for one you are the tone of all compassion to come
my a.m. darlin’ sun
my a.m. darlin’ sun
for one your are the spark of every song that’s sung
my a.m darlin’ sun
my a.m darlin’ sun

beat happening

boy sweeps across the street
girl looks the other way
Nikola grabs ahold of his thighs
but Thomas he takes the credit away
and you can’t discuss roots without opening up your mouth
awkward, daring
even conclude that the landlady is a louse
deemed necessary
on the hairs
on the hairs
of the day
on the hairs
on the hairs
of the day
they claim that there’s a beauty inside
then claim that it turns to decay
but to look at us now
well we couldn’t give it away
and the greatest of sins, well it might be cowardice
pontius pilate
rest assured the execution never even took place
ah the moonlight
bathes your face
bathes your face
bathes your face
it bathes your face
bathes your face
bathes your face
welcome to the beat that’s happening
welcome to the beat that’s happening
welcome to the beat that’s happening
welcome to the beat that’s happening

naked as a clothes pin
on a line
the sun will hit you
in time
function
not just some product of
ill-forgotten
labor
Grendel’s coming
for the light, light, light, light, light, light,
saber
no dragons on the end of my sword
no dragons on the end of my sword
no dragons on the end of my sword
no dragons on the end of my sword
