No one on the corner had a quarter for the telephone
Everybody bitchin' there's nothing on the radio
=================
=================
=================
Dreamin� again of a train track ending at the edge of the sea
Big black cloud was low and rolling our way
Dog at the barbed wire barkin� at my buzz-cut friends
Friend with a switch blade shinin� in the summer rain
No one on the corner had a quarter for the telephone
Everybody bitchin� there�s nothing on the radio
Dreamin� again of a city full of fathers and their white clothes
Chatterin� boys and a chicken at the choppin� block
All of us lost at the crosswalk waitin� for the other to go
Didn�t find the field but boy you�re really waterlogged
Someone bet a dollar that their daddy wasn�t comin� home
Everybody bitchin� there�s nothing on the radio
Dreamin� again that it�s freezin� and my mother�s in a flower bed
Long dead rows of daffodils and marigolds
Changin� her face like a shadow on the ground
This is what she said
No one lives forever and the devil never sleeps alone
Everybody bitchin� there�s nothing on the radio
