vic chesnutt - vesuvius lyrics
trying to clip the creek to the bank with a clothes pin
waterlogged system, rusty spring, faulty planning
logic squeezed out like mustard at a corndog
hypertension is not wisdom, chewing the leather straps
trying to hold the sun still with a bobby pin
burned fingers. excellent conductor of heat
private fantasies are not public policy
christian charity is a doily over my death b-n-r
busy work is not the great wall of china
vanity bamboo hut out back behind the big house
pretend is salve for whitey-boy guilt
furiously slapping at the moon with a cane pole
trying to prop up the heavens with a fresh flat pencil
some folks are allergic to rubber
i am trying to st-tch this one to all the rest of them
but the seams will split, collide and cleave
neopolitan ice cream is never truly integrated until it s too late
trying to stop the bleeding with scotch tape
platelets spoil adhesion, fire up the cauterizing iron
it’s a branding of necessity not scarification
bliss was a pimple that i tried to pop
it erupted up and out on my countenance
ugly eruption, vesuvius, ugly eruption, vesuvius
ugly eruption, vesuvius
vesuvius at myself, vesuvius at myself
