Dreamin' again of a train

track ending at the edge of the sea

Big black cloud was low

and rolling our way

Dog at the barbed wire barkin'

at my buzz-cut friends

Friend with a switch blade

Dreamin' again of a city full of fathers

and their white clothes

Chatterin' boys and a chicken

at the choppin' block

All of us lost at the crosswalk

waitin' for the other to go

Didn't find the field but boy you're

really waterlogged
