Eagle On a Pole

Saw an eagle on a pole, I think it was an eagle

Watched its shadow fly 'cross the cement

I woke up in the snow

All the trees were crowds of people

No coat, no shoes, no idea where they wentI followed the fence line, thin

Back where the yard begins

My woman, she stood crying like a manSaid, where have you been?

Where have you been?

I thought you said that all of that was done

El Cielo es azul, just don't go telling everyoneThought the kettle was a train

Thought that Monday was a door frame

I tried so hard to finally settle down

Heard the fire pop and snap like a tack piano rag

I never could get used to happy soundsBut I hope the world's exposed

A cruel and elaborate hoax

That convinces me to walk without a caneBut what can you do?

What can you do?

I always heard that what is done is done

El Cielo es azul, just don't go telling everyoneThe past don't ever quit, those boxes in the attic

Baby shoes and taxidermy dreams

While the ashes of the dead, like a dandelion head

Explode and then are scattered by the breezeAnd it's such a long way back

To all the fun that I had

When nothing ever seemed to bother meBut what can you do?

Child, what can you do?

Sleep beneath the stars and toil in the sun

El Cielo es azul, just don't go telling everyone

El Cielo es azul, just don't go telling everyone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
