1992-08 – Bad Etiquette (cassette)
Harvey Dog (words) John Battaglia (music)
Lyrics
cigarette dangling
from chapped lips,
hat pulled down
over hairy brows,
quick glances
at his wristwatch.
waiting
waiting
long overcoat
stained underarms
a bead of sweat
dangles from his nose
cigarette thrown
to the pavement
I approach him
tentatively
a scowl creases
his mouth
as he darts
his head
back and forth
forth and back
as I approach
he flees
into the safety
of the crowd
and I stand there
waiting
waiting
cigarette dangling
sweat dripping
hat pulled down
over shaved brows
glancing at the
sun reflecting
off the cement
waiting
always waiting.
