Calexico - Sunken Waltz Lyrics
Washed my face in the rivers of empire
made my bed from a cardboard crate
down in the City of Quartz.
No news, no new regrets.
Tossed a Susan B. over my shoulder
submerge the whole western states.
Call it a last fair deal
with American zeal
and corporate handshake.
Take the story of Carpenter Mike
who dropped his tools and his keys and left
and headed out as far as he could
past the cities and gated neighborhoods.
And he slept neath the stars
and he built a machine
for no one to see.
Then took flight,
at first light
of new morning.

Wonderful song from one of the best CDs ever released. The whole CD breaks the rules and avoids cliche. It's beautiful, edgy, sad, happy, silly, and serious. Thanks Calexico.

This song is amazing.
@LeanMalaSemilla Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering. I sense much fear in you.
