there's a little girl screaming at the sight of a gun
the light was growing in the absence of sun
and all the hummingbirds hiding in the back of my room
are humming something with peculiar tune
and the gardensnakes waiting to eat the frogs
are waiting around on the mossy logs
and the last thing that i heard before the picture fades is

don't forget to write it down
write it down
write it down so you don't forget
so you don't forget

all the mothers are waiting for the wars to end
all the beasts alive are "judy's friend"
and my frequent encounter with everything
tells me: don't tune out, hold on, believe,
and the running dishwasher that takes me home
is all hooked up to the telephone
and the fear of what comes later fades away as
soon as i

start to own
start to own
start to own
the part of me i hide
the part of me that's home

what am i doing hey?
there's too much going on to really say
i lose a little of it every day
subject to the lot of it like we're
prisoners in this melancholy drama we call cable
i'm not able to be stable said the dustmop to the dreidle

i've got a little if you don't mind sharing
i've got a little if you don't mind sharing
got a little if you don't mind sharing
got a little if you don't mind don't mind don't mind

stop taking pictures and start living life
went out in a rowboat and rowed for my life
and tugged it around,
free in the sand and water and rocks not missing the chance
walk through the trail, mulberry feast,
search for the power plant in the east
crawl through the dunes, wearing the sky
making up real life on the fly

we're full grown,
not alone
well maybe a little bit but we don't mind,
we're not afraid to lose
or it's a secret wish
keep on loading up the plate to say
there's too much on my dish

what am i doing hey?
there's too much going on to really say
i lose a little of it every day
subject to the lot of it
like we're prisoners in this melancholy drama we call cable
i'm not able to be stable said the dustmop to the dreidle

i've got a little if you don't mind sharing
i've got a little if you don't mind sharing
got a little if you don't mind sharing
got a little if you don't mind don't mind don't mind
