Under The Influence

Citizen King

now out past the cast of boredom cards get



dealt i sift and sort them table rooftops



coming down wooden nickels lost and



found apple pie i?m eating cake now



coming to the table late now juke joint fights



and diamond lights immune to poision ivy



snake bites batteries from start to chuck got



the outer limits voodoo luck stand by on a



highball holiday served fresh from a plastic



tray i?ve been around and up and down



overboard when ship came down out of



mind and sight in the strobophonic light i?m



under the influence tonight on the concrete



on the glass beyond the neon green bus



pass nowhere fast is where i?m going like a



crack that's slowly leaking juice on the floor



do a little less i take a little more time day to



day and eye to eye when these walls



become alive the sparkle helmet spins



around midnight streak in a twist top town



crystal clear through amber glasses bad with



names but worse with faces zig zag



wandering on the curve transparent mason



dixon curves i've got more nerve than a tiki



torch in a quiet storm so i'm searchin for the



third kind blast off and cut the cord
