I read the words through a little window
"Cuba Township" & I walk right in
Everyone dozes in the bright noonday sun
I type out a tax form for Gary MacDougal
Folding the letter so the address shows through
I read the words through a little window
Stand up & stretch, go & get coffee
In the back of my mind is the word "marshmallow"
Everyone dozes in the bright noonday sun
My eyes are the eyes of a true sea-veal
This envelope will go air mail to Tokyo
I read the words through a little window
Matrons who cruise by give me the eye
Blond and Fu Manchu'd the postman enters
Everyone dozes in the bright noonday sun
Waking up suddenly I go out for a sandwich
The headlines say FLEE FIGHTING IN ANGOLA
I read the words through a little window
Everyone dozes in the bright noonday sun |
