lyrics

she knocks the stride out of my step
wait, I had no stride to begin with
but you know what I mean
i'll xerox a fine 'zine
with her quotes on the front
to get everyone's attention
everyone
I've got it bad
everyone
I've got it bad
and her words aren't rigged or clad
with blame
unlike some floozie on the street
who pulls a cart full of magnets on the ground
to drag you down
no she's not like that at all
no she's not like that at all
she smiles
then smiles again

Michelle leaves notes in my desk drawer
so I have something to come home to
I wish I had a machine
to vocalize her cursive
i would sink in that space -
post two-syllable laughter
she asks me to take the train
she asks me to take the train
and her words aren't high, chained up
out of reach
we kick our shoes off on the shore
we walk til' bugs chase our feet out from the sand
onto flat land
she drives me to the train
only minutes still remain
she smiles
then smiles again
