Billboards Lyrics by Robert Deeble

Earthside Down

0

[Verse 1]
Hey Jesse, how's New York? I've never been
The winters get too cold, my body all too thin
Is it still a folk town? Like in the sixties
Bob Dylan, Greenwich Village, Carole King
Now there's Suzanne on the rooftops... listen to her sing

[Verse 2]
Choke the sun out of the sky
Barbed wire on a freeway sign
Here the gas gets cheaper than water
And love is thin with compromise
I know a story about a garden long ago
Then Adam bought a gun
Eve ran the factory, poured acid in the stream
Thеy had a couple of kids
One of 'em startеd a war

[Chorus]
We're all on the same fragile brink
Learned from the billboards
Not to smoke and how to drink

[Verse 3]
Hail my pepsi generation, kill your televisions
It's the right thing baby, now you're sitting in the dark
We were all just looking for some kind of revolution
But we never found a space to park
I thought I saw Damien Jurado
On the cover of a romance novel

[Chorus]
We're all on the same fragile brink
Learned from the billboards
Not to smoke and how to drink

[Bridge]
Tansy goes outside to play, she's a garden girl
She lies backside in the dirt
Watching all the world, earth side down
Where's your brother, with your mom?
There's your dad in his chair watching clouds
Jesus is your friend when you stay a child
When you stay a child
