willi carlisle - peculiar, missouri lyrics
so were driving home after many months away
about to pass through peculiar missouri as we do always
ots right before we hit the loving cradle of those hills of home
now let me tell you there’s nothing weird about peculiar missouri
h_ll you can look it up it’s an old railroad town
that turned into a suburb that begat an exurb
that turned into a certifiable usda small town anywhere everywhere usa
you know
you’ve been there even if you haven’t been
if america had a great big waiting room
it’d be somеwhere in the midwеst
and if that waiting room had a single crusty ass magazine in it
golf digest or something
you could open to the centerfold and find a teeny tiny ad for this hamlet of peculiar proudly proclaiming where the odds are with you, it’s not weird to love it here
so friend come on lets pull off the highway here
let’s get a little rest before a long night of driving
we’ve been sleeping in the saddle for a few days now and i’m spent
wow look out for that pickup truck gotdang people drive crazy around here
hang a ricky here, a starboard there you go
although i bet you know where we’re going already
yeah short of any public amenities it’s about the only place you can rest and get a bite to eat past sundown in a little town like this
there’s no public library, no ymca, and uh the liquor store closes at sundown
so it’s looking like the walmart, yeah we got a standing invitation to the hideous halogen bulbs of that all night wally world
where an uneasy truce abides between the traveling kind and the megacorporations that dain to make it so
so we’re gonna jump in there gonna have ourselves a little party
so we’re gonna jump in there gonna have ourselves a little party
the door slides open
and a sweet old man greets us
and that blast of hot air hits us
and can’t you see how everything in here is glowing
resplendent with objects from china indonesia bangladesh and beyond
so clean so sweet and so friendly
i wish it were happening somewhere else, anywhere else but here
where you can get the same toothbrush in alberta and atlanta
and the same deck of cards in tucamcari and dubuque
i might just fall to my knees in the glory and abundance and the sameness of all things
all things partying away in the last hours of this godforsaken babylon
its like were waiting on the oceans to rise
like were waiting on new york city and l.a to get swallowed
like were waiting on our personal private apocalypses
you know i think we might need to get out of here
cause it seems like i’m having a come apart here in the cosmetics aisle
while we consider whether or not were gonna steal this coral color of lip gloss outright
let us also consider how we will die
irreparably and irredeemably alone
how we may never be understood
how we may be too much for this world
how we might not have done enough for the world
that greeter doesn’t look so friendly anymore now does he
and we step out into the night
and you point up to a single shooting star
and then you turn to me and you say
give me hunger oh you gods that sit and give the world its orders
give me hunger pain and want
shut me out with shame and failure from yoru doors of gold and fame
give me your shabbiest weariest hunger, but leave for me a little love
a voice to speak to me at days end
a hand to touch in the dark room
breaking the long loneliness
in the dusk of the days shape blurring the days sunset
one little wondering western star
thrust out from the changing of shores of shadow
let me wait there in the days shape at the dusk
and know the coming of a little love
let’s go home
old friends and new lovers await good buddy
we won’t be back to peculiar before too long anyhow
maybe let me drive the last leg of this
i’d like to sit and look out the window
i sure wish i knew what we were supposed to do with ourselves
if you have any good ideas, won’t you let me know?
