lyrics

Smooth plastic mares
Swearing like sailors
Can’t keep track of the flavors
On the board

If I’d been born anywhere else, I don’t know if I’d be anyone else

Red cowboy boots
Purple recorder flutes
Play a Zeppelin tune
While my brother learned guitar

If I’d been born anywhere else, I don’t know if I’d be anyone else

Drawing cowgirls and puppies and fields with no wedge
Suburban soft landscape Bostonian edge
Pretend to hear wolves in mt front yard
It’s just traffic noise filtered through a field of Swiss chard
Stick together with glue
Paper collage in blue
Propped up right next to
A dog who would roll his eyes if he could

If I’d been born anywhere else, I don’t know if I’d be anyone else

An adorable narrative I got so used
With hints of constitution, I later tried to undo
Doing my best but I know I’ll go back to
The range of my street with squirrels that run away from you
