Palm Tree on Avenue G

Let us buy a little house

We can fix up

Move it all in your girlfriend's truck

We'll need some plants in our rooms

Lots of cartoons

A dirty carpet for a witches broom

We'll need a market down the street

Roller skates for our feet

A local laundry mat where we'll watch TV

And a pawn shop not far

You can lend your guitars

And buy 'em back when there's more bread in the jar

And that's all that we'll need to get by

We'll bring our neighbors some coffee peppers and cherry lime

We'll have a dog with one eye

A cat that climbs

Across our chipped fence a palm outside

You'll smoke on your pipe

While I sip on my beer

We'll pack our worries up away for the year

And if it all works as planned

Maybe someday we can

Live off on some distant beach in a van

We'll have a garden that rises up in the spring

And color it in in some paint stained jeans

And that's all that we'll need to get by

We'll bring our neighbors some demo tapes of you and I

And that's all that we'll need to get by

And that's all that we'll need to get by

We'll have our neighbors come by and join us for a fish fry
