Songs Title:nathan la franeer[00:00:03]
I hired a coach to take me from confusion to the plane[00:00:11]
And though we shared a common space I know Ill never meet again[00:00:16]
The driver with his eyebrows furrowed in the rear-view mirror[00:00:22]
I read his name and it was plainly written nathan la franeer[00:00:26]
I asked him would he hurry[00:00:35]
But we crawled the canyons slowly[00:00:37]
Thru the buyers and the sellers[00:00:40]
Thru the burglar bells and the wishing wells[00:00:42]
With gangs and girly shows[00:00:51]
The ghostly garden grows[00:00:56]
The cars and buses bustled thru the bedlam of the day[00:01:02]
I looked thru window-glass at streets and nathan grumbled at the grey[00:01:06]
I saw an aging cripple selling superman balloons[00:01:12]
The city grated thru chrome-plate[00:01:16]
The clock struck slowly half-past-noon[00:01:20]
Thru the tunnel tiled and turning[00:01:25]
Into daylight once again I am escaping[00:01:28]
Once again goodbye[00:01:32]
To symphonies and dirty trees[00:01:35]
With parks and plastic clothes[00:01:42]
The ghostly garden grows[00:01:47]
He asked me for a dollar more[00:01:53]
He cursed me to my face[00:01:55]
He hated everyone who paid to ride[00:01:58]
And share his common space[00:02:01]
I picked my bags up from the curb[00:02:03]
And stumbled to the door[00:02:06]
Another man reached out his hand[00:02:08]
Another hand reached out for more[00:02:11]
And I filled it full of silver[00:02:16]
And I left the fingers counting[00:02:18]
And the sky goes on forever[00:02:21]
Without meter maids and peace parades[00:02:23]
You feed it all your woes[00:02:32]
The ghostly garden grows[00:02:39]
