There is a town by the city border; folks call it the City of Salt
It’s famous for disagreement but there’s really nobody at fault
And the townspeople keep their doors at an awkward halt
Like desperate ghosts keeping in they’re socializing like a murmured cult
And, answered again was the telephone line
Where Miss Valley Day had me fill out her order to dine
I don’t know about her shores, but her slopes are doing just fine
Maybe I need clearer vision but I just can’t read her sign
I started out in high school King and hopeless like a royal fool
The shed was empty but I can make out a big man’s tool
What some people do just to be something invested as cool
It’s like playing the part of rocking chair when you’re made out to be a stool
Simply put it’s all rain horses and fiery ants
There are those galloping through water while others are burning under plants
And jokers just deny while others make up decent rants
While writer’s toil away for other’s to recite their prepared chants
Nomadic moles search the world over like it were the whirl of a rice man’s bowl
They’re blind but they’re trying to peek at some destination known as a soul
But little do these animals know they are not in any found control
No, it’s never the mole deciding whether or not to leave that hole
I could be wrong, but I’m not, no I know that I’m right
So please stop with the sunglasses, I’m feeling ready for some light
Just be sure to keep the hourglass spinning on into the night
And keep your arms wide open, you know I aint looking to fight
It’s all over now; you can give me all the compliments you can feed
The anarchist know it isn’t about what you want it’s about what you need
So if you’re looking for some direction, baby, I got just what you should heed
And don’t you question my direction, everything I write will take you where I lead
Seaside Avenue, it’s got the message blinking round the trumpet’s interior
If you look through it like a kaleidoscope you will see what’s near
Bards like me shouldn’t tell you what’s to be nervous or what’s to fear
But Honey Pie, believe me, you need to get the hell out of here
