El Cantador Empty Carz
I SIT AND WAIT FOR THE TRAIN
COUNTING CARS BUT THEY DON'T LAST
OH THEY DON'T
RED LIGHTS FLASHING I
I FEEL I'M PASSING ON
ANY DAY I WOULD TRADE
PRECIOUS METALS FOR OXYGEN BUT
OH THEY DON'T LAST
FEELING PECULIAR LIKE SOMETHING AWFUL HAS PASSED
AND IN THE NIGHTS I'VE LEARNED TO FOLD
ALL THESE ACHING SUSPICIONS BACK
WELL AT LAST
FOR NOW I HOLD THE CUE CARDS I RECITE ALL THE RIGHT WORDS
AND THEN THE MOMENT WILL COME WHEN I
MEET THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
FROM THIS SHORE IT SOUNDS EASY, WELL
I GUESS I'LL COUNT EMPTY CARS
