Where
we live
David Brown
She wore a smile about so wide
Wide enough to hide the hole inside
Wide but shallow - like an old horse trough
One day she’ll laugh and her head will fall off
We all
drink in the same bar
But we don’t all leave at the same time
So we don’t know where we live - and how
He always looked
and played the part
But his head was a safari park
Lions chased him around his dreams
Tearing the arse out of his self esteem
Long ago in a simpler
age
We all were naked and lived in caves
No clothes, no doors, no word for shame
No distorted reflection in the porcelain
We all drink in the
same bar
But we don’t all leave at the same time
So we don’t know where we live - and how
The Lone Ranger
only felt alone
When he removed his mask at home
And Tonto spoke um with forked tongue
He wasn’t even an Indian
We all drink in the same bar
But we don’t all leave at the same time
So we don’t know where we live - and how |
