lyrics

Tiny baby
we found you
sleeping or dying alone
in a shopping cart,
lost in the heart of American flesh.
We were scared
that you might scream
with violent life,
or that your simmering skin
might slowly begin to

yellow in time.
Daisy in pavement, you'll
yellow in time.
Asphalt abstraction, you'll
yellow in time.
Cold faceless soldier, you'll
yellow in time.
Brave little number you will

Grow up in a parking lot
where it's always summer,
And you'll ask plastic bags
to be your mothers.
And all the oil streams
you find in puddles
will pose themselves to be
potential lovers.

Fuck under parked cars-
Dark wet heat.
God of the dumpster-
Starve in peace.

Tiny baby
we found you
sleeping or dying alone
in a shopping cart,
lost in the heart of American flesh.
We were scared
that you might scream
with violent life,
or that your simmering skin
would slowly begin to

yellow in time.
Daisy in pavement, you'll
yellow in time.
Asphalt abstraction, you'll
yellow in time.
Cold faceless soldier, you'll
yellow in time.
Brave little number, you.
