Running Town

Running Town
Just a step onto the street
an uncomfortable heat
rattlers at your feet
in running town
helter skelter all a-swelter
the impetus is seething
in running town
a thousand curses
full speed ahead
Lockjaw aggression
and buzzing imitations
deride the friendly martian
in running town
Helter skelter all a-swelter
the impetus is seething
in running town
a thousand curses
full speed ahead
If you gaze into her face
she'll come back and drown
all refugees in the sea
of running town
A thousand curses
full speed ahead
Laughter rebounds and strangles
that sound in running town
