Escalator

Sometimes your hands fold into animals
Your time is up floating on eggshells
But be careful, my love
Ice is slippery at dawn, in December, in the city

Jack and Sam walk hand in hand together
Their footprints dragging in the sand
A pigeon calls, they watch the ocean catch on fire
Who knew salt water, it was, highly flammable

And Jack and Sam they run to a nearby escalator
Ride it all the way to the sky
It is so high, they're afraid that they might die, but they gotta try

Something sweet to remind you of your daughter
Who holds her cow tight as you take them up to slaughter
Lets drop our sins in the sea, they float away
I've found some keys in the attic so lets play
The games we played when we were happy in the summer
And we killed the kings and queen

And we run to a nearby escalator
Ride it all the way to the sky
It is so high, we're afraid that they might die, but we gotta try

Pamela and Angel share one noodle
With two mouths
Well they think that they might be in love, how great that they might be in love
They walk into a bar and they get so drunk
They forget their own names and just talk about the weather
"I think I feel a drop of rain on my head"
"Oh no that's just the man pissing from the fire escape"
They run and leave the urine trail behind them
They run and leave the urine trail behind them
The scent is clouding their nose vision
The scent has got their eyes swimming

And Pamela and Angel run to a nearby escalator
Ride it all the way to the sky
It is so high, they're afraid that they might die, but they gotta try

Pamela and Angel get their wings now
In the sky
