where the rain starts the grass grows and the blow goes on the row boats and the wind floats let me tell you there's a storm and if i've seen it before i've seen it once i've seen the door unlocked and i've searched for a key there are trees that bend and there are schemes that aren't pyramids but still the building goes on and there are wrongs to write out let me trout that stream i too fish america and i hold out my hand on no demands and no waiting i'm plaiting long hair and staring too wearing for the saving of funds unstrung too fast to cast a net too unsteady to bet on cards i don't hold but if you asked me there's a tree posing again and a scandal unheld no welding no waiting no overflow debating i am off again scoff again and i will tell you who's about to quit tell you who has had yes it and more and the store is full but the shelves are empty the candy's sticky but the sugar's plenty i can't have teeth that will not work and the soda fountain's got a soda jerk if you ask me task me and i will get it done but there may be other shifts to fill if i were not the one there is no one indispensable is the message learned today there is no one unentrenchable with no other bills to pay there are tracks and there are trains and those great wide-open plains are just hoping for the call-out and the fill-up for to go
