lirik lagu a red state handshake – elizabeth moen
[verse 1]
on the corner across from the gas station
on the same block as the public library
there’s a house whose yard is stocked full
of trash under it’s decaying trees
piles of broken toys and slashed rubber tires
and the rusted rims laying separately
porch swing sits atop a car hood like a tower
overlooking it’s view of the sea
[chorus]
of absolute chaos
in the middle of a quiet town
it’s not the kinda place
a governor hangs around
[verse 2]
standing idly by the screen door there’s a woman
lived in that house since she was three
got pregnant her soph0m*re year of high school
all anybody asked was who’s the father of the baby
dropped out same year once it was legal
started working in the grocery store’s deli
after a few years had another and got married
to the bartender who lived down the street
[chorus]
of absolute chaos
in the middle of a quiet town
it’s not the kinda place
a governor hangs around
[verse 3]
listening to the radio m*ffled from the air
she hears a woman screaming everything she wants to hear
keep your money, keep you safe, keep your job
our state’s been graced by the one true god
i’m coming down to your beautiful town
with time to hear all of your heartfelt stories
listen to the things you want done around
the church, the stores, see you at the rally
[chorus]
of absolute chaos
in the middle of a quiet town
it’s not the kinda place
a governor hangs around
[verse 4]
weeks go by and miss governor’s on pearl street
one step from the bus and lying through her t**th
our darling’s in line waiting to say something
tyler’s just happy there’s gonna be candy
gets to the front and shakes her boiling hot hand
“only time for photos unfortunately”
goes home throws her note card in the trash
that said what she needs
[chorus]
in the absolute chaos
in the middle of a quiet town
it’s not the kinda place
the governor hangs around
[bridge]
our woman needs care, our woman needs rights
our woman needs a woman who can honestly
give her everything her or anyone needs
to feel secure with the daily
[chorus]
absolute chaos
in the middle of a quiet town
it’s not the kinda thing
our governor hands around
