Crackers

Crackers spoil

In the California sun

Autumn leaves

But she never said where she was going

In your heart

Your mind grow dumb

You feign surprise to learn that

That's where babies come from

Remove your grace and ease

Try to avoid even the casual relationship to cheese

Girl I'm on my knees

There's a righteous piece of cheese

This twenty minutes

Doesn't seem that long

Still there's a tendency

To always get the words wrong

And here we sit

Out this tropical storm

Burning pages from your note book

Just to keep your hands warm

In or out of bed

This sergeant shaved my head

Your outrageous guess

Cover them with roses and affliction

Be the one that hardly speaks of fiction anymore

To leave when you're on top

And your team gets robbed

Overcasted funny faces

Hardly reminiscent of the truth

In the barracks

By the army cot

There's a feller who's just cut his face shaving

And as he bleeds

On his pillow in the dark

Waiting for the morning

when he gets to go online to you
