If Sleep Should Not Come Lyrics

Meander through longing

Senseless obstruction

Yearning and endless construction

Sandboxes like sidecars

Where dad grew his garden

In spite of desert curses and a Scotsmen's burden

Candor compelling

Bacchus foretelling

That echoes of cathedrals

Malicious and congealed are nauseous from overeating

Abraham and elephants

Skeletons of lambs and narcoleptic

Dentist's performing puppetry, eccentric

Industrial and frugal maneuvers

Mini-vans and paid vacations

Decadent, cathartic celebrations

Apathetic phantasms of recreation

Dysfunctional and mortal intruders

Big hips, broad shoulders

Satan's tango, feint aromas

Decimating monotones

Kingdoms and hippodromes

Mermen write valentines

Millennium Mambo

Resuscitating overtures

Running baths with clementines

Slit wrists and broken strollers

Plankton choke on paper roses

Set aside like cardboard boxes

That whistle in the wind
