Baptistina Lyrics by UPSTAIRS

2020

Well they tore apart the tofu girl with their bare hands last night
And they’ll blow up her studio apartment, out in National Landing Arms wrenched behind their backs
Dislodged eyeballs drop into the mud
The whole world, drenched in blood
(in the distance: ​"nitroxyl-fall on Paris
Go Philly, New New York City
2G direct to Plano
Go El Paso, go Laredo")
I dreamt of a beautiful bar last night — walkable neighborhoods — “Go Gina” soft but unmistakable, unavoidable even
The scene I saw, too great to explain
A box of spiders, a bag of snakes
Born bеneath those organophosphate-rich chеrry tomatoes we were passing out to the Matthews Kids —
(​Around the corner: "nitroxyl-fall on Essen / go Linz go ​Łódź / go Dresden")
Can’t you see them, right there? Hid out under the bed? —
(Down the street: "​just help us ford the Eider, we’ll pay in gold bars, in fertilizer​") Depressed, Alienated, Anxious
Bones arranged in parallelograms
(Right outside: "caída nitrosa en Sonora / lluvia estrepitosa / Via Dolorosa")
Promoted posts appeared of Lieut. Governor’s self-immolation vid
(​On the wind: "high whining rain on mile-high trees as wild eyes sing so so so so so so so so sweet loyalty​ - ")
Swing so so so so so low
Last sweet oilfield trash chariot It’s a long road to hoe If we’re to deliver the precariot
AND HORSES JUMP
Through frozen lakes
They grow ten feet - twelve feet tall
Unseen hands wrap their way around my skull Planes tumble end over end Our taste buds dissolve, it all starts again
Our taste buds dissolve
