lyrics

one foggy night, by a neon light,
I was drinkin' on the steps of a church,
when my glassy stare first became aware of a hummingbird suddenly perched
what feathered jewel could charm me so?
so quick, so bright, so sharp
-was I a fool,
oh no no no, not to see it from the start?
oh no
one random night under disco lights,
I was killin' in a billiards room -
when a pigeon with a morbid death-wish came searchin' for it's doom
what teathered fool had slid this way?
so lit, so lean, so dear
-would he know how to get me there?
would he know how to disapear?
oh no
and in the dark, we drop our guards,
we fill our throats with smoke and stars
and yellow moons and blue horseshoes
for fear the day will break too soon
