Janie Abstract The grapefruit league is over Janie closes the cache Blind ride through West New York on liar's holiday. A liar's lips are parting as these lying hands explain Trace my name with your finger on the clouded windowpane Do you paint me in a corner? Still I trace your sweet smile through the screen Janie knows what distance means The network is the nausea Plan a metropark like DC's The road to hell is paved with cuties working on their theses They're remodeling the Echo Queen into an e-café The future's passed on 46 since Janie's been away Do you paint me in a corner Still I touch your shoulders through the screen Janie knows what Abstract means Do you paint me in a corner? Press your body closer: We clasp hands across the digital chasm You and me Janie's an illusion Don't you see Leafing through the baseball abstract With a grin as Peter Tork The wrecking ball will claim us all And not just downtown Newark Are you tiring of books and banks and what it all defines? A liar's faith can melt these walls A liar's on your side Do you paint me in a corner? Still I touch your shoulders through the screen Janie knows what distance means Do you paint me in a corner? Still I sense your sweet smile through the wire Janie learns to feel the liar back |
