Odd Things

And you were calling its name
And you were chasing the train
You couldn’t let another Thursday go to waste
I’ll meet you down at that station
That’s next to the bookstore
Did you ever think we’d end up back here
Drive me round in your car
That’s filled with hard hats
And the air of a time I won’t think of
Odd things, odd things I saw
Deep in a valley with no stars
We can go to the lighthouse
That’s owned by the bastards
With mansions right there on the water
They’ll kick us out
Out by 8
But that’s when the sunset sets just right
You always drive
Drive so steady
Even though you’re holding me
Odd things, odd things I saw
Deep in a valley with no stars

James sent a package up on the river
James sent a letter up to me
James walked out into his garden
James took a walk through a big ghost town
Often I think of you out there
A man from out far east
Often I think of you oh James
And how you puzzle me
James sent a picture of tomato plants
James sent a picture of a garage door
James said he hopes that I have swell dreams but
I watched the sun rise on Columbia
You ever been to Osho's salad bar?
You ever been to the top of that hill?
You don't seem to be quite stuck in time
It's still 1980 in the Dalles
James sent a package up on the river
(Gate swings open, the boat sails in)
James sent a picture of tomato plants
(Filled up my hat brim, drunk a little taste)
I do hope that your dreams are sweet
But I’m thinking of a river going to waste
James I drove out to the Dalles
To have a look around
The sun beat down so strong and harsh
I turned my tail and ran
(Gate swings open, the boat sails in)
(Filled up my hat brim, drunk a little taste)

Living Will

Once upon a time there was a warm living room
And a kitchen light that fed all who sat near
Don’t be afraid, you’ll get there dear
I won’t be alone, I’ll have them here
If you’re not so lucky
Cold, you’ll drink your coffee
If you’re not so lucky
There, they’ll find you one day
Don’t be haunted now, homeward you go
Don’t be haunted now, it goes slowly
If you’re not so lucky
(There’s a dog for the foot of your bed)
If you’re not so lucky
(someone to hug you goodnight)
If you’re not so lucky
If you’re not so lucky
(someone to hug you goodbye)
