VERSE C Was just a tender chicken, in the Florida rotisserie F my owns sweats basting me, thunder storms are chasing me G i bit into a lightning bolt, my own tongue began to smoke F i woke up with an empty mouth, watched the watch tick backwards, C south of the south the csx vibrates the tracks, money order shakes the shacks, purple skies and orange moons, plants are confident in june humidity is thick you can cut it with a knife, if youd like to take breath here honey, im going to cut you out a slice so i developed gills and i moved into the aquaphor, fell asleep in wakala springs, woke up down in jupiter then i moved back to the land high into an orange tree it was set for life with citrus but my body couldnt take this a sitting tree so i strolled down to miami, tried to find myself some friends found myself down in south beach, and met some manequins who smelled of coconuts and copper tone, like the smells knew well as far as conversations go i guess it stopped at the start of the smell it was elvis and sinatra,and now wheres your wallet, man i got ya now if you pull like me they let poor people like me be they said north beach is a war zone, high rise hotels hollowed out now we were living large, we were stepping out and some thirty dollar beach front motel down south of the south CHORUS F C south of south, down in north miami, south of the south F me and my whole of returning, south of the south C we were practically married so i jumped my pogo stick all the way to ebo city, where they burned up a couple blocks, and to me seemed like a pity there was once a cuban district and a center for the arts, a model like atmosphere homogenous and insincere, they burned its heart right out down south of the south so i began a snake bird, an old swamp turkey, and soem red neck tried to shoot me, tried to make swamp turkey jerky but i evaded all his bullets and i flew into the gulf, and i jumped upon a west wind, to a safer haven out near alcony's and bay land, down south south of the south in the town of pensicola, riding bikes like we were kids, over cobblestones and brick a tab, offensively a bridge, was a sand lot shot gun shack, to move all rusted out, and theres a couch on every front porch, flapping screen doors, ants on the apple cores, pots boiled peanuts, down south south of the south south of the south,south of old bellanca, south of tuscunusa, south of the south, south of ol' alpharetta, south of the south, south of south carolina, south of south, down south, of the south, of the south
