St. Jupiter

One, two, three

The flowers from St. Jupiter
Are growin' in the yard
And I made sure that I planted all
At least three feet apart
To discourage all the mornin' pissers
Tryin' to leave their mark
It's been a long fucking summer
It's been a long year
I feel fat and old, and dumber
And I'm watchin' time disappear

The flowers from St. Jupiter
Look better in these pots
I remember when we bought 'em
I complained 'cause it was hot
If I could travel back in time
I'd just shut my mouth and let you shop
It's been a long fucking winter
It's been a strange year
There ain't a day that I don't miss her
But that is how it is around here

The flowers from St. Jupiter
Are 50 cents a pack
The ones that grew on Jocelyn Road
Have shriveled and turned black
But if it's meant to be
The things that leave some day come back

But that's a long time waitin'
That's a hard life
I'll just keep the fire in me ragin'
And I'll be doin' alright
I'll just keep the fire in me ragin'
And I'll be doin' alright
