Dalva's Dream

The fat sun has sunk behind the hills
Families are gathered in front of their screens
Daddy feels fine in his plain shirt and jeans
He's ready to take in
What the T.V. world is willing to give

In the kingdom of shadows
The blindman travels safely

While coyotes and women
Lying the freeway
Feed the land of Walt Disney
Cars speed ly unawares
Through the nightmare of L.A.

Some chippewa boy out of his mind
Yells from a distance
"This is America for you"

He looks up in a haze
Sees the moon and stars
And a jet-flyer plane
Thinking

This is all part of the same world
I hope I'm not gonna lose my way
