Sunken City
The Mumlers

i was sittin' on a bench in a park
with smog in my lungs and a song in my heart
And some room in my _____ depot

the sky was flashing black and blue
the cars were rumbling down the avenue
my heart was humming soft and low
i was watching the dead leaves
blowing across the ground
and watching the people dragging their feet
and hanging their heads down

But they gave me my parole
but i've done my time in the clink
and if this ship is full of holes
it might as well sink while you sleep

the trees are filled with little birds
i don't really know but i think they have heard
the songs from beyond my rear cage
cuz all of a sudden
before my very eyes
they took to the air and they
wheeled around and around and around in the sky
