All I Ever Wanted

Our paths crossed again today

That keychain and mine

You know the one, overcrowded

With keys to the passed doorways

I can't do anything with it

So ....

I baby oil my bath water

Play the bobsled bop

Let the water fly

Adobe Acrobat slowed my computer

To a crawl, a prisoner to its demands

Ignore and I'll just see it repeatedly

I can't do anything with it

So ....

I slip my feet out of my shoes

Squish the mud between my toes

Paint my white feet brown

A drought in the Bible belt

A shooting at Capitol Mall

And you're out spouting politics

As if you can control it at all

I can't do anything with it

So ....

I hit the gas when my car

Crests the top of a hill

Raise my hands up high.
