lyrics

Another Geography

you can brush the dust off your coat
but you can't hide you've been traveling for a long time
you can dance in the rubble of your broken heart
but you can't hide you've been dancing for a long time

so go and paint your face you will look pretty
birds are watching waiting for the kill
you might as well go out in bright daylight
you might as well turn your papers in

you can try and get across the border
tell them that it's been your home for a long time
you can tell the officer that you love him
you can touch him with your blue eyes

you can spill the contents of your suitcase on his table
and why you couldn't make up your mind
you can give him a lessen in geography
tell him why Mexico is not in Mexico after all

Mexico is right behind you
Mexico has been sending you mail
Mexico is the place you will return to
Mexico is the place you've never been

so go and paint your face you will look pretty
birds are watching waiting for the kill
you might as well go out in bright daylight
you might as well turn your papers in
turn your papers in
