lyrics
I sit on the porch watchin the gasoline torch across the street, fleetin meat
I draw interesting stares from uncles sitting right there
Flowers on a record player, an unused director's chair
A dog runnin down the street or maybe the sidewalk
I think it was the sidewalk, nothin rhymes with that
"Dog sniffin the bushes"
Not a fire hydrant?
"He found a telephone pole"
Is it his now?
"Absolutely"
Harleys parked across town
"Sittin lonely like a clown"
Cuz we all know clowns are lonely
"Harleys are not meant to be"
No?
No lights on, the sun's going down, mosquitoes are coming out
Glad I'm inside, yeah
I draw interesting stares from uncles sitting right there
Flowers on a record player, an unused director's chair
A dog runnin down the street or maybe the sidewalk
I think it was the sidewalk, nothin rhymes with that
"Dog sniffin the bushes"
Not a fire hydrant?
"He found a telephone pole"
Is it his now?
"Absolutely"
Harleys parked across town
"Sittin lonely like a clown"
Cuz we all know clowns are lonely
"Harleys are not meant to be"
No?
No lights on, the sun's going down, mosquitoes are coming out
Glad I'm inside, yeah
