Lyrics:
All of the girls out with their hips asway, But I'm the lonliest man. They're selling insence and sunglasses on Orchard Street, Boatloads of bootleg Sean Jean. I dreamed you up in this vast, dark bed, Believe I loved you for each hair upon the back of your neck, And I want to kiss you, but I can't, Down on the river by the sugar plant, Down on the river by the sugar plant. Earings weighing down the lobe, A nose who loves to slope, And a mouth turned down. Shoulders, pale and beautiful, And angle of the throat, And a sweet, sad, stare. All of the waves that crash upon the shore, Fruitlessly shushing the world. I'll pledge allegiance to my displacement, My flag of doubt is unfurrled. I'll dream you up on a vast, dark coast, Believe I see you walking towards me, Arms outstretched like a ghost, And I want to kiss you but I can't, Down on the river by the sugar plant... Down on the river by the sugar plant... [5x]
