First Song on the Moon

Lyrics

Dear Moon let's follow that Cadillac Yazoo Mississippi plates in the back She said "I adore the way they roll" Can you feel the echoes of laughter? Can you see the traces of smokepouringoutof every openwindow? And if thewheels of that Cadillac should leave the road Let 'em know we're on our way home Head dead east, flapping dirty wings, to the spinal fluid, stumble to the banks Big muddy going my way, new vulture on the highway Looking for epiphany and something dead to eat Now we're floating south, blissed out into the mouth Being gnarled driftwood on the toxic waste Can you feel the wheels on the pavement? Can you feel vibration below life? Is but a dream and we are rising slow And if the wheels of that Cadillac should leave the road Let 'em know we're on our way home Staring out the window Staring at the depot (Watching the barefoot drunks, walking on the blacktop as if it were the surface of the moon) And if the wheels of that Cadillac should leave the road Let 'em know we're on our way home Let 'em know we're on our way home And we don't need to make a deal out on the road We can meet the devil at home You know where to find me
