On Homes & Surroundings Songtext
There's a brand name frank
in the southernmost part of life
there's leaves on the waves
and squares to break
no bridges to cross
yet words to cross out
like in the newspaper puzzle
the books the tourist drops

He told his sons, that's us, today
“i cannot read in bed no more”
the twins they broke off all the words
paraphrasing jokes, communication
“my back too sore to sit up straight”

15 minutes overboard
choose to break off or decay
mother chooses us and stays
After three tranquilising years
frank's somehow in despair
hollow dark and underpaid
but the house yet shares its name
by some outlived ca-vity
though the house yet shares its name
by some outlived cavitary
…frame
