I wake up in the morning and I drink from the fountain I wake up in the morning with the same unanswered questions I don't know what's gonna cure my unsettled stomach Street kids collect spare change in a conch shell on the sidewalk Their teeth are yellow, their hair is tangled Their minds are vapid and they laugh wild in their depravity I make my way back home to you Head north on St. Marco Avenue White crosses on the church lawn I want to smash them all I want to smash them all Ponytails swinging back and forth behind bleached blonde College girls out for a jog St. Augustine, shine your light down on me Pop hits from the '90s echo out of tourist-filled bars I'm met with arms crossed under Dirty looks, I am treated like a common thief I make my way back home to you
Head north on St. Marco Avenue White crosses on the church lawn I want to smash them all I want to smash them all I want to smash them all Eavesdropping in on conversations I wander aimless, staring at strangers Strung out on the amphetamines that you gave to me Eyeballed with suspicion by a pencil skirt in high heels You realize that you're talking to yourself Cannon fire explodes out over the bay I make my way back home to you Head north on St. Marco Avenue White crosses on the church lawn I want to smash them all Looking for context and perspective Looking for some kind of distraction White crosses on the church lawn I want to smash them all I want to smash them all I want to smash them all I want to smash them all I want to smash them all
