Big Pile A Gravel

from Totally Human by Dan Jones and The Squids

lyrics

Gargoyles and evergreen high above the summer streets
and the crow navigates by the light of the gladiola
and people are walking by on their way to the korean place
and firecrackers pop, and snakes crawl around in the ivy

I walk the dog by the creek
and we climb a big pile of gravel
now that you're gone
I still sing my songs
and walk down to the store
in my sandals
not sure what I'm set up to handle

Now it's time for you to appear
with your coffee and crossword and puzzle my dear
your bathrobe it hangs on a peg
by the hatch of the capsule
why does this fly buzz above my pillow at night
this bed's like a raft floating on a sea with no bottom

I walk the dog by the creek
and we climb a big pile of gravel
now that you're gone
I still sing my songs
and walk down to the store
in my sandals
not sure what I'm set up to handle

hey there radio
what you talking bout
hey they radio
what you talking bout
hey there radio
on a cobblestone
hey there radio
kids playing whiffleball
summer's so good
summer's so fine
gonna play a little song
for some friends of mine
hey there radio
what you talking bout
hey there radio
talking smoke bomb nights
talking Touch Force tights
talking kindhearted kicks
talking deep end flips
