"Return of the Postmoderns" by Better Than Ezra

(Written by Kevin Griffin)


 
Ten-cent lovers 
Beneath the covers 
Riding on a wet dream 
Silver tonic free 
 
High stool sweet tarts 
Equipped with green cards 
Chomp their 401k's 
Semi-chocolate brie 
 
Digging in Las Cruces 
For an army drab container 
Carbon dating clothes 
For the last time they were washed 
 
Shelby and Sheila 
Onomatopoeia 
Catch hang nail on Banlon 
Shiver Martin Sheen 
 
Preschool mothers 
In Technicolor 
Are fire-bombing Dresden 
Stanton, Harry Dean 
 
Feeding line caught tuna 
To a neutered Bodhisattva 
Writhing peaches for the President 
Out on the White House lawn 
Beating Herbert Hoover 
With a leather tipped Pi?ta 
Thorn and Katy drink the milk 
Tinted Amerasian Green 

RETURN, RETURN, RETURN
