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.
