PICO BOULEVARD

(female vocal)

Pico Boulevard
You have defeated me
How could it be so hard
Your dumb street sign to see

Instead we race on by
In the Big Blue Bus
She called your name three times
Because I raised a fuss

Wrapped around the axle
Of my latest crush
I am too much the fool
To get off the bus

There’s an open mic
On Pico Boulevard
Where the patrons I psych
To prove me a bard

If I could just read
My love poetry
It might give me release
From this love misery

Striding to the stage
Poems clutched in my hand
I will act the sage
From a far-off land

I understand love
Better than Anäis Nin
It's getting off the bus
That really does me in

Thinking of him
Makes me such the retard
But able was I ere
I met Pico Boulevard
