Saint Geneviève #2
You were strapped down
And stuffed with a gag
And I said to myself
That's not the life I thought
My kid would lead
So I pick you up
From Aldi where the junkies meet
And ferry you home
Along these ugly streets
St Geneviève
Your mother gets herself
A big TV
And your hapless father
Sits around and reads The Go-Between
Like it might help his parenting
The lawyers count up
Each email they send
And bill us in six-minute increments
St Geneviève
We separated before you started walking
And now it seems we're heading off to court
She's catalogued your every fall and trip
Your photo album's titled Negligence
Oh my love, you chose your parents poorly
And stuffed with a gag
And I said to myself
That's not the life I thought
My kid would lead
So I pick you up
From Aldi where the junkies meet
And ferry you home
Along these ugly streets
St Geneviève
Your mother gets herself
A big TV
And your hapless father
Sits around and reads The Go-Between
Like it might help his parenting
The lawyers count up
Each email they send
And bill us in six-minute increments
St Geneviève
We separated before you started walking
And now it seems we're heading off to court
She's catalogued your every fall and trip
Your photo album's titled Negligence
Oh my love, you chose your parents poorly
