if I could fly, where would I go
that I have yet to be
is there a place, so different
that to be there is without comparison
or with someone who has no peer
yet the cleaning lady who speaks no english
smiles, today we all have phones
no language is a barrier
the chatter in the hallway rings in the ears
of course, you have never been where you are
did you say been there done that
seems a bit dismissive, what then is the missive
the solution to most everything is a formula
I assure you it is very complex, it is difficult
so easy to say, words, words and more words
the news people on televison have them
the politicians have them
some take off and run what they well damned please
some defend, some bitch
but it is all so simple and yet impossible
like forgiveness, got to be a quid pro quo
got to feel some sort of release when it gets done
got to get "mine" and you own nothing
but it is a whole lot of nothing
the morning sun in her face, really shows her age
and that is just how the song goes,
but no one hearing it held her or was held by her
just words to convey something you cannot feel
if in your eyes something is everything
what is that everything worth,
that you might try,
love is not magic, love is not really much at all
it is just a word, but the work
alas, the work is what is divine, for it bears fruit
silly rabbit and all those goddamned trix, eh
what will you learn if you go to school, that you need to be taught
really, if the law is the law, it is only best when broken
so are we, nothing shines in safety,
gets all the sarcopenia, maybe you identify with the fight
maybe you deny the facts, you avoid the miracle
yes, there are miracles,
if only you believe in miracles baby, I don't know
that song is more about eating pussy and coming
but, that is the subtly worded stuff outside the chorus
what is the loudest is all you hear, and sometimes, it just ain't the same song
maybe what is important if you miss kissing is to be a little more shameless
and just admit what you want, or what you hope to steal
either way you have it, no police will visit
then, that telephone, has a free translator, try to say something to the cleaning lady
maybe like, thank you for keeping my shit from me so I forget, we are all cattle
that problem solver, well, three words or two depending on whether a mere vowel is a word
give a fuck
oh, yeah, all that and arguement, lament, righteousness and such
ego is the enemy, or it makes us all each other's enemies, because it must be right
but things are no better on the left, though they may differ
or the center, or any place that you feel is fit to be
if you could fly, what will you escape from
maybe that is why we don't have wings
the best places is where we are, facing what we usually avoid,
es locay es mihos and mihas, mithra and mithros
don't be milquetoast, don't be anything with a label
maybe not even yourself, it is something you know nothing about
but that is a hard sell, nothing is what it is supposed to be
like love, it is the work that makes the difference
just give a fuck, do something, anything
we can all repine and recline, and become some reduced hyperbole
in some platitudinous bubble
in some auspicious snowglobe flittering fast
with a soundtrack
if I could fly, where exactly would I go
