The Landfill

This is an ode to eternity

Sung by an old show pony

In this long, slow rodeo

I've come to know

Lookin' down from the landfill

I can see the city lights a-shimmerin'

And it's like a holy vision of what could be

And couldn't be, and could have been

And now I'm sitting in the car

Thinking it's written in the stars

This is the end of the movie

'The Song of the Bawling Beauty'

It was such a sad, sweet story

Maybe eventually you'll see

So yeah, you've seen into my heart

And you've seen what I never really could

Now I'm lookin' down from the landfill

I see the lights of your neighborhood

Yeah, I always knew you would

End up somewhere good

Yeah, I always knew you would

End up somewhere good

And now I'm sitting in the car

Thinking it's written in the stars
