Greek Fire
Whatever it was that gave me strength that evening
To keep you laughing and keep me feeling safe

That skipped me home with Paul’s disarming honesty
And made you love me even if you were high

Was an anomaly
Greek fire
A momentary storm of light
No one called the cavalry
None arrived
You went inside

Your soft girl arranged riverwise
Touching herself in my bed
I can’t complain
Run don’t hide
It’s better to look than to find

Was an anomaly
Greek fire
A momentary storm of light
No one called the cavalry
None arrived
You went inside

Well I’m a fifth columnist
I’m a liar
I bet I get worse every time
I was a great novelist
But I died
In ’95

A big light
A bush fire
Words come out
Of the sky
You don’t say
I don’t ask
I begin
A great fast

(Listen to me. If you listen carefully you can almost hear me typing. Lovers arranged Christlike and crumbling. Listen to me. Leave it alone, your lovers are arranged Christwise and crumbling)

Listen to me
I’m no boy
