Sinéad, I'm Afraid

Lovers climb barrels and sit on the steps
while a hundred-footed dancer rethinks the mess
on a bar-crawl, decor, hot-afternoon
candy off the floor like it's the 21st of June
Shakers in the bathroom on bleeding thrones
while half the decent-chats all make their ways home
wake up! house plant! look in yer eye!
rock n roll Jesus is a sniffer on the sly
Cyclone tethers are gumming the walls
bigger than Texas, than student halls
Wake up! Andro-! Fire brigade!
I need a green juice and an hour
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
Hairs all mussed like some power-pop kid
I lost another screw on 'What Katie Did'
o, trembling! station! pick up the phone!
One more cab calls a secondary loan I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
Oh I'm afraid!
Oh I'm afraid!
with Sinéad, I'm afraid
with Sinéad, I'm afraid

(Start of my day)
Start of my day
I was a walking wreck
By the beach
Went to my room
And ate food on the floor
I sat alone
And I stared at the street lights
They asked me a question
They said
"How long do you think you'll be here?"
I pulled out my pockets and said
"I'm staying right here"
Start of my day
I was a walking wreck
Picking out-of-place
A place to hide
(But a cowboy hat put me in pretty plain sight)
And when you're in my life
The words, they come to me
I got with someone else
I'm not sorry
I know you can't understand
I'll never understand
It's true
Start of my day
Start of my day
I was a walking wreck
And the hotel ghosts spoke
Barely a breath
Well, I'm sorry for the dinner plates
They pile up in my room
When I stack them orderly
I only think of you
And I know you can't understand
I'll never understand
It's true
But New Brighton
Oh New Brighton
