Take note
Of a homesick drunken sailor
On the road to a sunken trailer
He's walking in time
Sidling down the right side
Calamity has befallen
A botanist who has missed her calling
And this is a crime
“At the end of my life
When I’m running too short of hours
I'll hide away and miss the flowers
And no one'll know”
“Basically my mind’s made
A life-long vow to stay low
Been so long since I owned a halo
In this reality show”
Shall they meet?
Will they meet?
Or are they moving on, on both sides of the street?
Opposite sides of the road
With a code they cannot unravel
And a lifetime left to travel
Before it's resolved
Comin' out the fog
It's a dog ‘bout to roam right into traffic
On the road things can get graphic
But now she's involved
Running to the pup
Pick it up
And she hauls that hound to safety
While he walks on down to 8th Street
And we pull back and dissolve
Shall they meet?
Will they meet?
Or are they moving on, on both sides of the street?
