lyrics

the helicopters are relentless from the police academy -- a screaming brood of locusts buzzing silhouetted trees -- each palm frond giving detail to blinding stadium lights -- which kill the stars and make the moon shine every single night -- and though there are no curtains for their sieve-like louvred windows -- scott & portia sleep so very, very hard -- you'll never see so many donut shops and other ways that you can sin -- it's a rolling house of terror merging onto the 110 -- and you're just plain unused to this, nothing seems to fit -- ideals go by the wayside when you're hanging by your wits -- and though the streets are unrolled for everyone to strip -- scott & portia sleep so very, very hard -- when you mean nothing but to the one who loves you -- you keep your city small -- once an honest farmer drove his plow right through this mall -- intersections could yet give right way to fragrant trees so tall -- simplicity can be arranged, it's meaning redefined -- even for the cop that's got his flashlight right 'tween your eyes -- all that sprawl's like morning glory, could the frontier life? -- may scott & portia sleep so very deep buried in the yard
