lyrics

It’s an empty-hearted flea market
Trinkets stiff with rust
Guadeloupe virgins
Are mute with dust

In the humid air
Humid air
I’ve been there
If only in a dream

There was one lonesome cricket
Two distant dogs
And the edge of the highway
Is covered in fog

In the humid air
Humid air
I’ve been there
I think it was a dream

Well the dogs they bark in curses
The birds Hitchcockian
Perched up on the wire
So hungry and thin

In the humid air
Humid air
I’ve been there
If only in a nightmare
