There's A Full Moon In My Backyard

from Life In The Soft Lane by Magic Deal

/

lyrics

There's a full moon in my backyard,
The kind of light even a drunkard could reflect on.
But I'm no Running Rabbit I've never moved on instinct:
I turn every leaf over before I cash it in,
Over and over and over and over again.
I'm gonna do whatever I want to do!
I'm gonna do whatever it is that I feel is true.

There's a slim moon over Crispy Pizza,
And chicken wing fingers hold the one I'm missing.
But negative spaces can fill at the speed of darkness,
And in a single square inch of silence
You could learn to love the human voice.
With secrets whispered in the language of night,
The kind that only time will tell.

There's a new moon somewhere out over the highway,
The business end of heaven hits you right between the eyes.
Caught between two pair of lights, one red one white--
Driving at night I didn't get to where it was I wanted to go
I was just another man on the road.
I took a chance on an exit ramp,
Found the prolific poetess I was looking for.
I said, "I'm gonna do whatever I want to do!--
I'm gonna do whatever it is that you tell me to!"
It's not that I have some grand profundity to say,
I just want to talk to you Jess.
