about

this song is in some ways an attempt at channeling my mother's heartbreaking and regretful psyche somewhere in the 70's. she wanted out and didn't know how. i feel like i understand her now and in someways i hope i can release some of that pain for her.

lyrics

you light a cigarette
and get in to your maverick
and drive into the parking lot
and put on your blue eye shadow

you light another cigarette
and think about your box of yets
that live under your sisters bed
you go into your job
and punch the clock

your boss he tells you what to do
he says your needed on register four

*
don’t you worry children
mary’s gonna care for you
all you have to do is cover your eyes
all you have to do is cover your eyes
while i leave ohio
leave ohio
leave
ohio
