lyrics

The light bounces off of the airport floor
A tower reflects in the swinging glass door
It’s everything just like before
They’re back in town again
Eyes cast down again now

I’m caught in a carousel of cars
It’s hot and confusing behind this bar
It’s all gone a little bit far
They’re running around again
Upside-down again

Streetlights in the air
Clipboard questionnaire
Everyone ranting and raving
But nothing coming from their lips and
The runes and hieroglyphs
Make me wonder if
Any of this is worth saving
And Jacques Tati is standing hands on hips

And I can’t make out just what they say
I’m walking this corridor all day
American tourists in grey
She’s in that gown again
I’m the clown again now

And I’ve given over my last red cent
On visions of glass and dreams of cement
And I don’t know where it all went
It’s chairs with crowns again
Verbs and nouns again

My own Twin Cities and
The prime meridian
Running into each other
A lie to launch a thousand ships and
I sometimes get the sense
It might be me against
Everyone else and his brother
And Jacques Tati is standing hands on hips

Streetlights in the air
Clipboard questionnaire
Everyone ranting and raving
But nothing coming from their lips and
The runes and hieroglyphs
Make me wonder if
Any of this is worth saving
And Jacques Tati is standing hands on hips
