The Shift Change Splits the Streets
I'm pushing pins through the pavement.I'm adding days to the week.I feel the city sidewalk shake beneath meWhile everyone sleeps.I'm spiking Punch & Judy sendoffsWith silver dollars I stoleFrom Michael's dresser somewhere back in BrooklynWhile he was out digging holes.I wrote the horse you rode in on a letterTo keep the focus off me, and make it stay there,To keep you guessing whil the shift change splits the streets,But I still can't sleep.
