Dead in the water
It's
not
a
paid vacation
The
sons
and
daughters
Of
city officials
attend
demonstrations
It's
hardly
a
sink or swim
When
all is well
if
the
ticket sells
Out with a whimper
It's
not
a
blaze of glory
You look
down
from
your
temple
As
people
endeavor
to
make it
a
story
And
chisel
a
marble
word
But
all
is lost
if
it's
never
heard
But
I've got
someone
to
make
reports
That
tell
me
how
my
money's
spent
To
book
my
stays
and
draw my plans
So
I
can't tell
what's
really
there
And
all
I
need's
a
great big
Congratulations
I'll
keep
your
dreams
You
pay attention
for
me
As strange as
it seems
I'd rather
dissolve
than
have you ignore
me
The
ground
may be
moving
fast
But
I
tied
my
boots
to
a
broken
mast
The
difference
is
clear
You
throw
it
in
your
cauldron
Rust
and
veneer
Dusk
and
dawn
Steinways
and
Baldwins
You
start
with
a
simple
stock
of
all
the
waste
And
salt
to taste
But
damn
my
luck
and
damn
these
friends
friends
That
keep on
combing back
their
smiles
I
save
my
grace
with
half-assed
guilt
And
lay down
the
quilt
upon
the
lawn
Spread
my
arms
and
soak up
Congratulations
