Lyrics for Song: Ashes of American Flags
Lyrics for Album: Kicking Television: Live in Chicago [Live] [2005]
the cash machine
is blue and green
for a hundred in twenties
and a small service fee
I could spend three dollars
and sixty-three cents
on diet coca-cola
and unlit cigerettes
I wonder why
we listen to poets
when nobody gives a fuck
how hot and sorrowful
this machine begs for luck
all my lies are always wishes
I know I would die
if I could come back new
I want a good life
with a nose for things
a fesh wind and bright sky
to enjoy my suffering
a hole without a key
if I break my tongue
speaking of tomorrow
how will it ever come
all my lies are always my wishes
I know I would die
if I could come back new
I'm down on my hands and knees
every time the doorbell rings
I shake like a toothache
when I hear myself sing
all my lies are only wishes
I know I would die
if I could come back new
I would like to salute
the ashes of American flags
and all the falling leaves
filling up shopping bags
