RAGE, SCATTER, AND SCOLD
Lefty / Connor Freff Cochran

Mondo Metamorphose
Met a big-time Mercury
Set her sights
On diamonds and degrees
Rigor Tony Mortis
In a stiff wind off Belize
Cast adrift
Where he once sailed free

In the garden
All the players
Choose their parts
And disagree
Trading places
Trading faces
Sure that fate
Will leave them be
Of course they're wrong

Trendy Tennis Betty
Come and gone to grace the truth
Gave it back
And hid behind her youth
Junkyard Jackie Jester
Sold his ammo from a booth
All alone
When Elvis came to shoot

On the freeway
All the drivers
Park their cars
And climb the trees
Parting glances
Pressing chances
Sure that fate
Will leave them be
Of course they're wrong
Of course they're wrong

Extra-hyper Mister
Moved his mojo up the line
Kicked the can
Too late to kick the wine
Faded Frieda Folly
Stood alone where Daddy cried
Lost it all
When Momma wouldn't die

In the garden
All the players
Choose their parts
And disagree
Trading places
Trading faces
Sure that fate
Will leave them be
Of course they're wrong
Of course they're wrong
Of course they're wrong
