lyrics

Elevator Buttons

I am a tv set the old kind
With rabbit ears and seven channels
You are Christmas lights blue ones
That leak around a smoky room

And your mother’s in the lazy boy
Talking on the phone long distance

I’m a string of popcorn half eaten
By the dog you found in a parking lot
I get so scared when my words hit the air
So mostly I stay quiet

I don’t mind a little quiet
Sometimes my ears get so goddamn tired

I know your name doesn’t rhyme with anything
So I make up these words and melodies
Looking for your face up in the night sky Eventide
Near Seven Sisters Pleiades

If I’m not trying then it’s easier when
The impending failure happens
There’s a kind of catalog a film that loops
Of the flailing I perpetuate

Maybe god is just some petulant child
Pushing all the elevator buttons
