[length: 02:45]
[00:28.54]There’s something solid forming in the air
[00:34.86]And the wall of death is lowered in Times Square
[00:43.28]No one seems to care
[00:46.27]They carry on as if nothing was there
[00:53.84]The wind is blowing harder now
[00:56.27]Blowing dust into my eyes
[01:00.57]The dust settles on my skin
[01:03.89]Making a crust I cannot move in
[01:09.14]And I’m hovering like a fly
[01:12.13]Waiting for the windshield on the freeway
[02:45.58]Echoes of “The Broadway Everglades”
[02:50.97]With their mythical madonnas
[02:54.62]Still walking in their shades
[02:58.27]Lenny Bruce declares a truce
[03:01.23]And plays his other hand
[03:05.07]Marshall McLuhan, casual viewing
[03:08.31]Head buried in the sand
[03:11.68]Sirens on the rooftops wailing
[03:15.23]But there’s no ships sailing
[03:18.66]Groucho, with his movies trailing
[03:22.36]Stands alone with his punchline failing
[03:29.41]Ku Klux Klan serve hot soul food
[03:32.79]And the band plays “In the Mood”
[03:36.04]The cheerleader waves her cyanide wand
[03:39.82]There’s a smell of peach blossom and bitter almond
[03:43.37]Caryl Chessman sniffs the air
[03:46.32]And leads the parade
[03:50.04]He knows, in a scent
[03:53.05]You can bottle what you made
[03:56.73]There’s Howard Hughes in blue suede shoes
[04:00.40]Smiling at the Majorette, smoking Winston cigarettes
[04:07.10]And as the song and dance begins
[04:10.89]The children play at home
[04:14.86]With needles
[04:17.07]Needles and pins
[04:19.74]
