lyrics

stepping through the clouds
teetering on stilts
you see for miles and miles
you see the quilt
gliding through the sky
time flies from east to west
a glimmer in your eye
the world is chess

the sun is going down
but come on, don’t be sad
the plane has left the ground
and you’re beautiful in plaid

a warning in your ears
a fairway in your eyes
a drive to greener pastures
fills the empty skies
and it’s not that you hate games, you said
the long shots as they rise
it’s not that you hate games, you said
it’s what they symbolize

it’ll never be a fad
for the rest of them, you know
they’ll never dress in plaid
it looks good, it looks good on you, though

like your old granddad
in plaid

Arms of Kismet Winchester, Virginia

Brooding and poppy, funny and foreboding, it’s toe-tapping, tragicomic rock ’n’ roll.
