Sing Sing - Elvis Perkins

Sing

Sing

Thanks for the rain

The secret explosions

That start the day

Forget about the ocean I’ll

Forget about the waves

With a mind full of rain

A mind full of rain

Where were you born

What does your shirt say

Are you miles away

Are you miles away

From the paper skyscrapers

The stickfigured neighbors

The dead and the endangered in the sun

Sing

I pray to stand stand up straight

To stay on my feet

Get out of the street

Where are you bound

What does your sign say

Are you miles away

Ar you miles away

From the water photographrs

The zombie biographers

The hollywood astrologers too

The license plate says

Sing for bread

For the life and for the dead

For the living and the dying

Sing

For the day you were born

And a day just like today

Happy half birthday

Happy half birthday

From the future archeologist

The broken cardiologist

The anesthesiologist in you

Sing
