Richard Brautigan - The Silver Stairs of Ketchikan lyrics

2 A.M. is the best time to climb the silver stairs of Ketchikan and go up into the trees and the dark prowling deer. When my wife gets out of bed to feed the baby at 2 A.M., she turns on all the lights in Ketchikan and people start banging on the doors and swearing at one another. That's the best time to climb the silver stairs of Ketchikan and go up into the trees and the dark prowling deer.
