Saturday Video

I remember
How the darkness doubled
I recall
Lightning struck itself

I was listening
Listening to the rain
I was hearing
Hearing something else

Life in the hive puckered up my night
The kiss of death, the embrace of life
There I stand 'neath the marquee moon, just waiting
Hesitating...

I ain't waiting

I spoke to a man
Down at the tracks
I asked him
How he don't go mad

He said "Look here junior, don't you be so happy
And for heaven's sake, don't you be so sad"

Life in the hive puckered up my night
The kiss of death, the embrace of life
There I stand 'neath the marquee moon, just waiting
Hesitating...

Well a Cadillac
It pulled out of the graveyard
Pulled up to me
All they said get in, get in

Then the Cadillac
It puttered back into the graveyard
And me
I got out again

Life in the hive puckered up my night
The kiss of death, the embrace of life
There I stand 'neath the marquee moon, just waiting
Hesitating...
