No More White Stallions

from Schizodestiny by Woosley

/

lyrics

Just like Harry and Tonto
Just like Harold and Maude
Like two Emperor penguins or
Two lovers abroad

We are a montage of this city
We are an old man's routine
We are the last dance at the Valentine's Day Ball
A boulevard of broken drinks

I hurl a series of broken epithets
While you squirm in my arms
We have been slated for demolition
This house is losing its charm

Once you were a diamond
Once you were a star
There are no more white stallions
There are no more shiny seaside bars

The sirens were blasting
You were reciting King Lear
The wrecking ball was at the ready
When you put a bug in my ear

We used to run up those stairs
To keep an eye on the kids
We had our whole lives in front of us
Life got behind us and hid

There are no more white stallions
There are no more catchers in the rye
There are no more rusted skeletons
There are no more wheat kings to cry
There are no more white stallions
