grasshopper

this dog is gonna bark all night
fornicate in the pale moonlight
and i've been soakin the bread i find
mouth dry in the canyon

and i wanna be with you
but i"m hung over and blue
pour the light from my flask
it burns but don"t it cast...

i was never taught to charm the sea
fold the maps and brave the beams
a grasshopper who never learned to harvest things
so harbor me in your treasury

oh, then i followed you down
i"m a bunk baptist and i followed you down
bet your money on my fantasy
and i'll hold my hand to show

you got my heart, you got this china lace
and i only wanted to save your face
those drivin boys they all took me
to high times and revelry

ah, and then you followed me down
how'd a queer duck ever get so down
such a marked saint to be
anoesis destiny
anoesis destiny
anoesis destiny
