Long Grass Street

Barefooted, I keep sliding Shuffling down the Long Grass Street To the fountain of Poseidon Where some ageless people meet Think it’s time to see my friend And a dog of hers as well Time to talk about the end If there’s something new to tell Windows open, doors ajar Most of habitants look out Some drink whiskey from a jar Some are smoking, talking loud Round the corner music’s playing That I’m quite familiar with Big and small boats keep on sailing With a little help of breeze I would like to join the chorus But I look for better treat Humming Rex Tyrannosaurus Walking down the Long Grass street I’m a knee-deep in the grass By the fountain I see you Smiling through the jets of glass In your shirt of navy blue.
