Bogsey and the Argonauts
The Gas Station Attendant
Stop telling me to come outside, its ugly and cold, And carrying a fragrance of acetone Quickly moving along on a northbound wind. And covering the tracks behind was the town pride and joy A boxer boy who was on the rise to stardom, to fame, and to glory. He fought his way to a national bought But one wrong punch and he was out on the floor They had to carry him out the door. 6 months later he worked at the gas station Filling the cars with petroleum So they could head off on their way. and they smiled and kissed his cheeks and showered him with praise as he pumped their cars till the fuel gauge read, in lightly glowing letters god anywhere but here god anywhere but here He sat all day outside On a white plastic bleached bone skeleton chair. With the smell petrol filling his weary eyes Letras de cancionesWith tears and cries of get me out of here I want to trade corpses with you, he cried at a grave, because the dead have no slaves. and they smiled and kissed his cheeks and showered him with praise as he pumped their cars till the fuel gauge read, in lightly glowing letters god anywhere but here god anywhere but here
