Moonlight spills on comic books

And superstars in magazines

An old friend calls and tells us where to meet

An old friend provides directions for a meeting place, introducing an element of guidance.

Her plane takes off from Baltimore

Her plane departs from Baltimore and lands on Bourbon Street, indicating a journey or transition.

And touches down on Bourbon Street

...


We sit outside and argue all night long

-

About a god we've never seen

-

But never fails to side with me

-

Sunday comes and all the papers say

-

Ma Teresa's joined the mob

-

And happy with her full time job

-

Do do do do do do

-

Am I alive or thoughts that drift away?

-

Does summer come for everyone?

-

Can humans do as prophets say?

-

And if I die before I learn to speak

-

Can money pay for all the days I lived awake

-

But half asleep?

-

Do do do do do do

-

A life is time, they teach us growing up

-

The seconds ticking killed us all

-

A million years before the fall

-

You ride the waves and don't ask where they go

-

You swim like lions through the crest

-

And bathe yourself on zebra flesh

-

I've been downhearted baby,

-

I've been downhearted baby,

-

Ever since the day we met
