Chris Garneau:Castle-Time

Men doing men-thing times
chewing candy and tobacco lines
drinking Harpoon pints
tossing nickels and dimes

They're looking for an exit signs
they're looking for a lucky night
they're talking in boring rhymes
damn they're keeping up old times

My teacher died, even the frying pan cried,
rain fell slow according to castle-time,
I was only nine

I was looking for an exit signs
I was lookin for lucky nines
am I talking in boring rhymes?
face it we're living in war times

Let's cry about it
let's cry about it, you can
cry about it

Don't be embarrassed
I won't laugh at you

The river flows north and winds
traveling south you hit wind-time
the passers-by are not kind
but the sky is sublime

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
