Rotary Park

Album: Joe Hawley Joe Hawley Durasi: 3:17

Rotary Park is safe after dark

Neighbors off porches, the playground is stark

Wine stained a vacant old basketball court

Dwellings surround a municipal fort

Don't mind the stories of triumphs and glories

Rotary Park is the jam after dark

Be, leave and decide, stay and be blind

Easy to claim when you've places to find

We nearly died, be that inside

Grinding the gears of all tides

Rotary Park is at peace after dark

Chief Pontiac stamped his name on the mark

Mystery buried (Be, leave and decide)

In flat dominos (Stay and be blind)

Twilight atuned to (Easy to claim when)

A creeping repose (You've places to)

Don't mind the lion hid dreaming of Zion

Rotary Park is ablaze after dark

Rotary Park is swell after dark

Coveting woes in bureaucracy throes

Trials by pairings with (Be, leave and decide)

Blood on the psyche (Stay and be blind)

Victory airings not (Easy to claim when)

Sponsored by Nike (You've places to find)

Purple potato-faced (We nearly died)

Comrade ascends (Be that inside)

Vultures encircle (Grinding the gears)

Abandoned amends (Of all tides)

This morning I woke from a nightmare and fell out of bed

And Lo! the ghost of a man ages thought to be dead

A smile and a ribbon he wore with a dutiful pose

A wink, a prick from the thorn of that beautiful rose

Rotary Park is a gas before dusk

Don't mind the four savage young horsemen of musk
