about

Grass

lyrics

In your father's coat, you pawned off his closet
it was the last day of winter, 2002
now you haven't got much, his shoes and his wallet
and those records you remember from your youth

Now you'll drive down between parking garages
watch the crows sweeping down from the lights
of the switch motel and the cellular tower
across the river's crumpled foil

Was he ever a handsome man like you?
Was he ever a handsome man like you?

So you'll lie down in that butter-colored grass
watch the crows sweeping down from the lights
they will dive, they will dive, they will fly and they'll alight
as the hours, they turn your hair white

It will make a handsome man of you
it will make a handsome man of you
it will make such a handsome man of you
but it break the handsome fool in you
