lyrics

Police sirens
Made their mating call
Retrieving my teen-aged head
From a lust-filled fog
Handcuffs scratched my wrists
As I kneeled on the asphalt
Half-asleep and shirtless,
You watched from you bedroom uninvolved

They drove me away in a police van
Hopefully the searchlight didn't wake your cat
The sheriff choked on his walkie talkie
As he dreamed of a punch out sheet and some coffee
I thought of a Valentine's treat
As I carved your name on the backseat

Deep in sleep
And between your sheets
A serpent found you
On a picnic in a dream
He ate your cupcakes
and stained your jeans
Unforgiving fingers
strangled him till he turned green

He coughed up blood and a wedding ring
And a pair of Chickadees serenaded in a tree
The green grass turned to warm concrete
And you didn't notice till your legs were knee-deep
When the concrete found your tan lines it felt like
sitting in a church where they served fake wine.
