lyrics

Hiding on a bench
in the shade next to a tomato plant
iguanas on the telephone lines
with tags placed by the government
I see trees of green
but I can't locate the red roses
when the raised red waves cascade
I'm a step too far behind Moses

The fever breaks in a pumpkin patch
that sits misplaced in the church crabgrass
while mocking birds and monarchs pass
over side streets frosted with broken glass
I hear the highway roar its endless conversation
two steps too far from shore when I pick up the vibrations

I'm picking up bad vibrations

In the backyard with a stiletto
bouncing off the bark of a cabbage palmetto
up to West Palm, down to Homestead
the shine of sweat stamped to my forehead
lakes filled with water moccasins
as the warnings singe every each of my skin
the raised red waves are crashing in
yeah the raised red waves are crashing in
