Trinidad - Pet Lions

Stay home safely*

Symptomatic of aristocrats

By the time you reach thirty-three

Condescending in the heartland

Please come quickly

You’ve already got the upper hand

Lemonade iced-tea

Bringing back your southern contraband

Listening to the same songs

When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another

And the only thing that I can remember

Is that anybody’s face would do

Essex Elementary

I found a picture that your brother had

Franklin Road Academy

From your vacation back to Trinidad

Expectation is a luxury

A luxury you never had

Do you want anything to do with me

Or could you meet me at the newsstand

Listening to the same songs

When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another

And the only thing that I can remember

Is that anybody’s face would do

We could pick a Saturday

And I could meet your sister too

Life is easy

If you never go to summer camp

If you watch enough TV

It’ll make you wish you never had

Listening to the same songs

When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another

And the only thing that I can remember

Is that anybody’s face would do

Listening to the same songs

When I was in the backseat thinking of you

We could pick a Saturday

And I could meet your sister too
