No Babies

Some leapt with joy and others wept
At the nearness of the sun
The summer came and summer left
Before a warden made my turn had come
Aw what a mother for my kids
That whole thing of beef she was not still with
The proverbial hell
So I spent all fall directing traffic upside down
At some inverted crossroads waving my Samhain flag 'round
Lying demons singing scriptures from the pages
Lying demon I been singing the same passages
For ages and wooo!
I know the devil made that birthday drss you wore
Out of every hair ver fell out of my skull
Down through the floor
I pass the virus apartment
My dumb ol' ancestors face me
I shoulda stayed dead before
I never did have a ton
Never had a ton never had a ton though baby
Some dig the pain while others slept
With a heater tearing them apart
Winter came and winter left
It left in the backseat!
Of the sheriff’s car
And in the taillight
I’m gonna sing the blues
I’m gonna sing the reds
In the air and in the dark
So if that plane is headin' backwards
It’s been making you seem smaller
All the birds below are flyin'
Some black flying-V guitar
I will follow back
I will follow back
To where you are
Toward the blues and the reds
In the air and in the dark
So when the springtime spreads her legs on the hospital bed
Well I’m gonna be there
With a flower in my hand
And that jester 'fore he’s masked
Cotton clasped around my head
I solemnly swear
To be powerful man
I’m gonna keep good company
Cause I live in a dark town with no babies
But this feeling’s like a son to me
Yeah I live in a dark town with no babies
But I got this feeling
Yeah I live in a dark town without no babies
But I got this feeling
Yeah I live in a dark town with no babies
But this feeling’s like a son
It’s like a son
It’s like a son to me
