when you walk through Senate Park
you evade the infra-red
your foot's asleep and pins and needles
keep the blood from getting to your head
when you stalk me through the dark
I suppose I'm not alone
and the flash of recognition makes a spotlight
shaped just like an ice-cream cone
why can't we live in peace
when others don't?
where the hell is Senate Park?
why is it so poorly lit?
we slipped on all the same bananas
why don't any of us wanna split?
why don't we live in peace
when others can?
when they tear down Senate Park
get a thousand signatures
below: "you can't do this, it's not well lit
and anyway it isn't even yours"
how can we live in peace
when others would?
when can we live in peace?
we could
