lee hoiby - filling station lyrics
oh, but it is dirty!
++this little filling station
oil+soaked, oil+permeated
to a disturbing, over+all
black translucency
be careful with that match!
father wears a dirty
oil+soaked monkey suit
that cuts him under the arms
and several quick and saucy
and greasy sons assist him
(it’s a family filling station)
all quite thoroughly dirty
do they live in the station?
it has a cement porch
behind the pumps, and on it
a set of crushed and grease+
impregnated wickerwork;
on the wicker sofa
a dirty dog, quite comfy
some comic books provide
the only note of color++
of certain color. they lie
upon a big dim doily
draping a taboret
(part of the set), beside
a big hirsute begonia
why the extraneous plant?
why the taboret?
why, oh why, the doily?
(embroidered in daisy stitch
with marguerites, i think
and heavy with gray crochet.)
somebody embroidered the doily
somebody waters the plant
or oils it, maybe. somebody
arranges the rows of cans
so that they softly say:
esso++so++so++so
to high+strung automobiles
somebody loves us all
