lyrics

Running out of making do
Shoe for pillow, pillow shoe
Rumble outside restaurant
What do the forgotten want

Windmill gesture down the street
Surplus thinking on your feet
Nothing clear or quiet or dry
No asylum in the sky

In thin air the plans they make
In the downswing zone
Before long he cuts the deal
Closer to the bone

In thin air the plans they make
Closer to the bone
Coming round he sells the ring
In the downswing zone.

And the days fall off the list
Onto the random optimist
Home at last, no wall to haunt
That's what the forgotten want
That's what the forgotten want.
