dispatch - elevator operator lyrics

airstream, poetry, new orleans, the shape of your mouth
cafe cars, corner bars, back roads, we did the south

and i told the elevator operator
“see you later, there’s a chance i’m not making it down”

the wind and the willows, cigarillos, and chairman mao
yeah, i took a big hit of the counterfeit, but i’m better now

and i told the elevator operator
“see you later, there’s a chance i’m not making it down”
and all you moon drifters, beware of grifters in their glitter
there’s a chance that they’re taking you out now

and ah, if it wasn’t so tragic
i’d tell you everything from start to finish
but i’m afraid that it would lose its’ magic
oh, that sleight of hand in the dreamland
the city in louisiana that felt like heaven
but everyone was still alive

you said you were traveling, and you put me in your pocket
you said i tasted like summer, you could feel our pine forest bed
your words played on repeat in my head
and it took me a while to get you out
but then i’d get a letter
with you still calling me baby
there’s pine needles in the parchment
and you asking me if i was still searching
for the world that i believed
and i’d write back, not meaning to send
how i was fixing to settle down in some quiet southern town

now i know you were with him all the while
i didn’t think corporate lawyers were your style

so daisy, don’t come, la la la
daisy, don’t come to new orleans
daisy, don’t come, la la la
daisy, don’t come to new orleans
daisy, don’t come, la la la
daisy, don’t come to new orleans
and daisy, don’t come
oh daisy, will you come?

and ah, if it wasn’t so tragic
i’d tell you everything from start to finish
but i’m afraid that it would lose its magic
oh, that sleight of hand in the dreamland
the city in louisiana that felt like heaven
then one was still alive
