Sing It To The River
There's a party at Cane Creek.
The stars and the signs are flashing in my eyes. What a sad road for these violent violent times.
And for just 7.95, you can come on down, have a drink and have a good time. We'll all laugh and we'll listen to children explode when they've done something wrong. Last time. It's their swan song. Yeah. Go to peaceful sleep at the bottom of our creek.
I hear all the preachers laughing. I hear all the preachers laughing. I see parents shaking their fists In up and down lines in 4/4 time. I hear all my children crying.
What's my body worth?
Check your price tag.
What's my guarantee?
Check your pulse.
What's my return date?
Check your vital signs.
What's my status?

Listen please to these broken dreams We were falling down dead from the tops of the trees To the cold hard ground with the twigs and the laves To decay in silence and reverie
We wandered through the cold in the dead of night Staring at the stars – what a lovely sight Brought back to reality and struck half blind By the city so tall with her neon lights
Mom and Dad were always good to me 'Til they took me to the church by the dusty creek Started reading all the words of the man with the pearls And when I got home late they started beating me.
They tore off all my clothes and they ripped into the skin And still they dared to cry when they saw me in my coffin I was lowered to the ground. Six feet down. They never heard me shriek over old Cane Creek.
My baby's mouth is full of tar charred feathers. My creek is nothing but crippling bad weather. My kitchen table's made from switch blade metal. And my front yard is a play ground for grave yards.
I hear all my children crying
