lyrics

Behind the mountains the sky was flashing with no sound
Through mosquito nets the rain fell in
The fan kept my stalactite shirt swinging slow
Went to see the dead guy in his dreaming
The frog in the shower saw me
As you were to see me that night
I was waiting for you at the Elvis poster place
Gloves up your arms dress all in white
And a big hat hiding your face
You were the only one being cool in the heat

Tight band of crickets and the local acrobats
Made the sounds less lonely leaving our room
The Plastic Parliament was showing 99 degrees
And I was finally sleeping

The crackers went off and then the rain came down
And you stayed in your room all that day
And that long dark car at the corner
Was it waiting for me or for you
I was too busy keeping dry
To see it slowly drive away

Tight band of crickets and the local acrobats
Made the sounds less lonely leaving our room
The Plastic Parliament was showing 99 degrees
And I was finally sleeping
