Jailbird 05:19
Oh jailbird, I wonder if you heard They're planning your release now Oh ghost man, they'll take you by the hand And show you all of NorCal They're carving up your face Bright colors and taste So someone can make A word upon a page Norman Mailer, abrasive and absurd, Is running the trains now In the jailyard visited by a bird He'll kiss you on the cheek now Carving in your face Little fucking creep Moving in your sleep They're gonna have to wait Waiting for you
2.
Arrested 03:53
Went down to the station 'cause they told you to Arrested for something that you didn't do P.O. waiting for you in the other room Hey, pretty person with a point of view We've been dying, dying to get in touch with you There's a place for your buddies on the evening news Acting like people with a point to prove And somewhere there's a perfect metaphor for you Two hundred-story buildings wearing sequined shoes Or three bottles of liquor in a tipped canoe, Lonely operator with the radar blues Met her down in Old San Juan eating clementines Beautiful scenery she doesn't mind Carrying a beige tote bag full of light supplies It's hard to figure out who to trust sometimes Met him down in San Marino eating propofol Beautiful buildings, he owns them all Threading through a silver machine filled with aniline It's impossible to slip between the lines
3.
Half asleep They'll have you if you're live or dead Delirious, subsisting on air Being dragged along with the crowd Into the bondage of the workhouse: A machine built to terrify And cut limbs off the brain-damaged As penance for your whole life of Wanton irresponsibility Your hand is pulled Into the blades Onlookers laugh In ecstasy No one is held Responsible Besides yourself It's just as well You've been so careless, careless Prepare for the pain Careless, careless It's coming again
