How Long

How long do you think it's gonna last this time?
I prayed for Portland, but I'd settle for peace
Green strawberries
And how sick until the traditional meds kick in?
When they woke me to eat could you hear that I was hungry?
Green strawberries

Some months we spent just to cash a check
I can't even think about it
Some June, I'd rather lose June
Some hippie fresh from her first orogeny
Some silver spoon
I'd rather lose June, I'd rather lose you

How long, how long, how long
I'll shave my liver for you, doctor
How old, how bad?

Summer found me on the fence
Born again in a sense
And I swore I had a dish to clean but all I see is green on green
Just green on green on green on green

But how long til the Arkansas floods?
How long til the taxi comes?
How long to get drunk on this stuff? Cause I've had a few, but I'm not done
How long til we fall out of touch?
We used to sit out on the porch waiting on Saturn's return
Well, if I make it that far I'll never learn
How long til you're in my front seat?
How long til the gardens on Waverly?
Venus, be good to me
How long til I can fall asleep?
Some months we spent at an airport gate, we were there from the first day
I thought we'd drive and reckon too
But I'd rather lose you
