I been touring the train stations of the West Central Midlands
I might find myself in Cornwall ‘fore too late
This is a divorce song but it’s kind of hard to get that
I’ve been practicing putting on my meanest face
I’ve heard the the cornish hate the english and the english hate the french
And I asppire to a hate that’s half that petty and entrenched
Had lots of disappointing first that led to disapointing seconds
And i’m only standing upright cause i held on to some lessons
Like if you’re not yet drunk by noon what are you doing with your time
I’ve heard that Devonshire is warm this time of year
And i’ll have sobered up here soon and I then I’ll get back on a line line.
Until then someone find my hand another beer
And’s it true, we said, that a train must need a station
And’s it true, she said, it’s all about location
And’s it true, I said, I would stop running away from things
but there’s left out there to run away to
The international highway
From Chile to Alaska
Has just begun construction
In central Mexico
It’s locked up all to hell, there’s all these troubles with the borders
but when it’s all in order it’s the only way i’ll go
And sometimes i think, that it’s alright driving backward
sometimes i think, i should be less of a bastard
and then i wake up scared, and i seal up all the blast doors
and i confiscate the passports and i don’t let no one in
there’s an island, in the southern south atlantic full of penguins
and the only humans there are shooting nature films for england
And i’ve long held that a change in my profession could be nice enough
I’m just stuck on the question of if i can stand the ice enough
i know, in certain languages a camera is a prison
But I notice every moment that I lose to indecision
And i’m running low on ways that I can call myself the victim
So i’m framing up a system for what’s coming after that
The intercontinentional highway from fairbanks to antartica
Has just begun construction in Central Mexico
This picture here’s of Casey, she’s from boulder Colorado
And what it means to me is than you could know
