Fresno Girl

I was walking downtown to
Get some hostess apple pies
The girl behind the counter
She had cotton candy eyes
A plethora of colors
In between the aisles
The morning newspapers
Stacked up in a pile

Now I'm people watching
From a spot back in the shade
Enjoy the crazy shitshow
I call the freak parade
Distraction from the many thoughts
From the near and far
Like clowns popping out
From a tiny car

Fresno girl
You really shook my world
Fresno girl
You really shook my world
You really shook my world

Back to my apartment
Wrong side of the track
The Kafka cockroaches
Lying on their back
Opened up the icebox
And to my chagrin
A lone jar of mustard
Lying there within

Now I'm people watching
Lifting up the shade
Enjoy the crazy shitshow
I call the freak parade
Distracting me from memories
Dormant sleeping bear
A trapeze artist flying in the air

Fresno girl
I couldn't get much denser
You spit me out
Like a Pezz dispenser
Oh my Fresno girl

My solitude pliable
Melting candle wax
Kafka's metamorphosis
Is lying on its back
Now the cockroaches
Hail me as their king
Crowning me with sorrow
As they dance and sing

Fresno girl
I'm heading back east
I guess it's done
Total and complete
Fresno girl
I've got nothing to say
Fresno girl
You're back in L.A.
Oh my Fresno girl
