Ultrasongs

TV glows through the chicken wire
Sunset grows these shadows higher
Daydream breaks as the screen door slams
There’s not much time

There’s a train goes right by here
Destination unclear
Seen that look on a face before
Whistle’s blowing, there’s the door

I know you’ve got a big sad soul
Just like mine, mama told me so
Don’t leave me here when it’s time to go
All alone with my big sad soul
All alone with my big sad soul

Ooooh, oooh, ooooh
Ooooh, oooh, ooooh

Thought by now there’d be a sign
Some kind of peace, at least a prize for trying
Now that red horizon’s calling
Mama’s in the kitchen bawling

I know you’ve got a big sad soul
Just like mine, mama told me so
Don’t leave me here when it’s time to go
All alone with my big sad soul
All alone with my big sad soul

Ooooh, oooh, ooooh
Ooooh, oooh, ooooh
Ooooh, oooh, ooooh
Ooooh, oooh, ooooh
