Poor Boy

A truck parked this morning- outside the grocery store

Friends face the future- they're wearing summer clothes

Great cosmic forces- like falling dominoes

I love talking funny- it's the only song

I knowSweet smart and ***y- the day my life began

Burnt out and damaged-

I dragged my body home

This slice is runny- it's dripping down my clothes

Flies stick to honey- it's the only game they know

Poor Boy-I walk into the river in my hat and shoes

Poor Boy-I'm sittin at the table with a knife and spoon

Life fast die happy- don't let your panties show

They trust market forces- it's the only song they know

So come and rock my soul- where sin and sorry lie

White horses carry me- unto the other side

Poor Boy-

I'm livin in a country where my thoughts are cold

Poor Boy-

I'm waitin for the harvest of the seeds

I sowA flower in the night- with thoughts of days gone by

I've got to ring that bell- and

I'll be satisfied

Poor Boy-

I'm wearin silver slippers and a long white gown

Poor boy-

I picture in my mind the day the walls come down

Poor Boy-

I'm livin in a country where

I'm never free

Poor Boy-

I'm writing down the names of all the things

I see-
