Sidewalk Josie

lyrics

Sidewalk Josie sits on the BLVD.
Shuffling Wall Drug souvenir cards.
Dealing hands to the gutter and to Sweet Janey's sister.
I said: Where are your parents?
She showed me a magazine picture.

Anybody hear about Mary's brother?
Supposed to ship back home sometime last spring.
Poor poor Mary and his poor poor mother.
The neighbor girl still wears his promise ring.

Sittin butt naked on a lumpy futton
Record player just skipped through my favorite song.
Ya know I'm so god damned cynically optimistic.
I cut my finger. Won't you please please kiss it.

Talking on her cell phone talkin to her boyfriend
Earbuds in, thinking bout drinking on the weekend
California winter, 60 degrees.
Thank god for fake fur
and thank god, for fake, tanneries.
