There's a spot out by the train tracks
All the local girls and boys like to get stoned
Their minds are filled with destinations
But they ain't nearly brave enough to go alone
So they wander through the rail yard making faces at the moon
The only trick they've ever been taught to do
To take a breath and close their eyes
30 seconds at a time
There's a park outside the city, a former psychic calls her home
She's half as old and twice as pretty
As the doctor's misreport would have you know
She has a vision every morning
She sees the world through busted shards of glass
Sellin' last week's magazine outside the laundromat
Slowin' down traffic at the light
30 seconds at a time
Bumped into Jesus at the diner
Where he was blessing a bowl of mac and cheese
Now there's a man who spends his whole life fighting evil
Best fill that boy up
With all the carbs that he can eat
He says the king's buffet upstairs is overcrowded
And the TV's always stuck on CNN
Says he just wants to catch the score before the work comes in
Fast food commercials flicker by
30 seconds at a time
