Pulled off the highway Turned into a Texaco
Richie went for snacks I filled the tank with a credit card
I need a bath I need a cigarette I wouldn’t ask
Watching sparrows circle Land up in a sycamore
All stretched in a line Where they were before
I look for meaning search for a purpose It remains to be seen
Kid on a roof top Shooting a bb gun
Mom swings on a swing set Smoking her blunt
The billboard’s is pealing You can barely see
A man holding bread Smiling stupidly
Then I hear a gun shot Richie runs like a stuck pig
Frank starts the car up And the tires spin
Kid on the roof With his mouth agape
Drops his bb gun and starts to shake
His mom is screaming And I hear Frank laugh
Richie slumped in the back seat hands at his side
Puts on his glasses says its way to bright
Just fucking warn us is it really so hard
I turn around and see he’s covered in blood
