Rash of Robberies
State Radio

Solarium malaria looking for the stereonWanted to save being excommunicated from the areanA it’s okay.nIn the city he said he cut a cord of wood,nNo bigger than a thimble but still plenty good.nA it’s okay.nnCause it’s just a bump on a rash of robberies.nOn account of the world economy that’s making us sick.nnGo get the man who said he’s on to me,nHe thinks we’re in the kitchen with our sticks.nBut he don’t know that Paris is burning down,nYou’d never know it in this town.nThe governor’s walking around like he’s got tricks for you.nnCatch as Cassius never became the killing machine,nRun him over ruff shod ‘till he bleeds army green out,nSo devout to the saint that lost his seat he never seen,nSemi-automatic rosary out devout.nnCause it’s just a bump on a rash of robberies.nIn a world to sad for Solomon we just sit.nnI’ll watch your economy,nI’ll tell you when the police have it fixed.nnParis is burning down,nYou’d never know it in this town.nThe governor’s walking around like he’s got tricks for you.nnSo take a minute to laugh it over,nWe’ll make sure it’s all true,nJust like she said behind the barn on last December eve.nnBaby falls 40 feet caught by a street cleanernComing home from the union hall, he saw the fall.nA it’s okay.nJP Sousa found a radio, a radionSousa found a place to go, a radio in his head that said…nnIt’s just a bump on a rash of robberies,nAn old sand lot anomaly that’s saving this day.nIn a world too sad for sodomynWe’re just sitting in the kitchen with our stray.nnBut Paris is burning downnGovernors are walking aroundnWe’ll make sure that they do right by you.nnSo you think you might go to BeatricenEven though the letter was never found,nMaybe it will come tomorrow noon.nnShe is asking her fallen saint tonPlease return her straight-laced fighternWho don’t know who she is,nHe don’t know who she is.nnWhere are you my sweet Desmond Doss,nHave you softly gone to winter,nHere I’ve brought you your two two-dollar bills back.nnBut I’m not waiting for sweet Eliza.nShe can have her watercolors back,nI found them on last December eve.nnYou look strangely quite so familiar,nThe way you talk of suppertimenBut I don’t know who she is,nDon’t know who she is.nnAnd you, you bring this beloved strangernAt the foot of this pile on Gideon’s bed,nShe gave me a needlepoint motorbike.nnSO go and take this to sweet Eliza,nIt was written and gently given to the couriernPending arrival soon.nnCould you hold me just one more oldernThen I’ll go as your fallen fighternWaiting at the door, can’t see you anymore,nnHere my dear a sweet Nostrovia,nIn a letter sent to December.nI will wait for you to just humble me home.
