47 - Beer

We sat around your daddy's fireplace,

and I asked myself

what would it be like 

if I 

stole all of the lemonade?

The kids on the backstreets

never knew London 

the way I did 

when I played all the 

physical games

with all my friends. 

The parking lots were never high 

but that didn't mean a thing 

because the crowd

was intimate

in front of your father's house.

The neighborhoods 

of the downtown landscape

looked more beautiful 

than stayin' up late --

'til the sun came up --

playin' video-games. 

We put the lotion 

on our skin 

'til we know that the fish 

ain't playin'. 

There ain't no beer

like the beer I got from her.
