Ladybird
Your house is on fire
Ladybird
Your children are gone
So what are you gonna do
So what’ve you got to lose
So what are you gonna do
So what’ve you got to lose
Don’t forget you can fly
Don’t forget about the sky
Ladybird
The north wind will blow
Ladybird
Then there will be snow
So what are you gonna do
So what’ve you got to lose
So what are you gonna do
So what’ve you got to lose
Poor thing
Head under your wing
Tryin’ just to keep warm
Poor thing
Head under your wing
Tryin’ just to wait out the storm
Don’t forget you can fly
Don’t forget about the sky

So Much Depends
04:22

So much depends on William Carlos Williams
With the red wheel barrow, glazed with rain water, beside the white chickens
After eating the plums in the icebox, which you were probably saving for yourself
Please forgive me he says, they were delicious, so sweet and so cold
Don’t lose your imagination
Don’t let your heart be small
(X2)
On the black lots of the hospital where nothing grows lie shards of broken green bottles
And caterpillars crawling slow, uncoiling in spirals like falling domino tiles
I thought I was doing well, then I saw the soul of a nightingale
Alive in the shade of a tidal wave, hung with bouquets, arranged in a maze
Don’t lose your imagination
Don’t let your heart be small
(X4)

Time Drips
03:45

In a small canoe
Out on the golden water
The moon’ll be singin’ soon
Rocking us to sleep
All the yellow sands
Patted into castles
When the tide comes in
Dissolved into tassels
Time slips
Into the stream
Time drips
Like Salvatore Dali
Time slips
Into the stream
Time trips
Sipping tea
At the city zoo
I opened all the cages
Some of ‘em knew what to do
Others didn’t even move
Now do take care
All you diamond cutters
You’ve always had the heart
But‘ve never had the numbers
Time slips
In the stream
Time drips
Like Salvatore Dali
Time slips
Into the stream
Time trips
Sipping tea

Home All Right

Your mind’s a drift
Like the snow out your window
How they call you so and so
Your mind’s a drift
Like the snow out your window
How they call you so you go
I still see your lights
After mine long burned out
I followed through the night, me as your satellite
And knew I’d make it home all right
In January
You pull your bones together
Wrap your shaking heart in feathers
Find out what you’re made of
When the thing you are afraid of
Looks you in the eye
I still see your lights
After mine long burned out
I followed through the night, me as your satellite
And knew I’d make it home all right

A Good Story

Marry me
June 17th
With matching rings
And small dinner with family
No one would believe
If they put it in a movie
But everybody loves
A good story
She’s all in lace
Jewels from a safe
He’s in a tux
Dressed up, for once
(X2)
No one would believe
If they put it in a movie
But everybody loves
A good story
