lyrics

Have you ever felt a horse's fur?
Soft and coarse unspoiled by words
Swirls near the hips contradict itself
Ornery towns in mountain swells
Cigarettes gumboots and spurs
Tousled forelocks matte with burrs
Rolling range of greenery
Dry blood back roads and grass to eat

The stars above too weak to work
Pour their vessels down to the earth

Joyful sound of a stray dog
Catch a poor squirrel in its jaws
Well such delight cannot be priced
The ground is red its mouth is white
So run around show off and yell
Knock nice pictures off their shelves
Do what you will sleep on a log
And soak into that fecund rot

I know I can't wait / it feels great
Better hope to God that you can keep your camera straight
Now we've been and we saw
And gee I hope we got it all 'cause I just know I won't remember

Trample the fence / Leave all your cans
Well I really hope that you would let us back in again
And you will so nod
I like it pure and unadultered / goddamn simple
Don't you go on changing nothing
