letra de war goes on - mad river

she’s been riding
there for days
in an island truck
her head tied to her knees
she’s fifteen
wears wire mesh stockings
at times
she can hear the driver breathe

and he turns his head
and he speaks across his shoulder
my wife wanted heroes
and so then i told her:

i lay there and waited
for one with my numbers
but somehow i live to be much older

tonight i’m waiting
for it to fall
a drop of water
the first i’ve had today
if i can just get
my mouth beneath it
when it falls
my tongue will go away

and the engine shakes
and the drop hits my shoulder
and the sun comes out
and i wish that it were colder

i used to live
where winter followed summer
but somehow i live to be much older

(it’s getting hotter)
i remember when
(my head is bouncing)
my tongue froze to the gate

they called the doctor
yeah yeah
in wisconsin
they pried my tongue away

that’s when i found her
lying by the road
the trucks rolled by
the dust soaked my clothes

she called for water
from the spring
she called me driver
she could not see a thing

when i got back
the birds
flew round something
by the side of the road

picked the veins from her hands
like they were worms
i muttered to myself
“you poor little broad

“poor broad!”

stood her body up
in a field of flowers
don’t ask me why
to scare away the crows i guess

the crows i guess…
the crows i guess…
i guess…
i guess…
