This is one-way media, this ain’t no chat room.
We have not met yet, so let’s start with a letter.
I’ll write you a mean letter to think about things.
You leave me a message on the answering machine.
We both want to go and listen to our ears speak.
Trees are cocks are guns are men and cars and power.
So much signs, I can’t stop trying to signify them.
Let’s go conquer some free space, that’d mean so much to me.
The letter’s been sent.
The deed has been done.
Now we just wait
for the reaction.
The vote has been cast.
The bomb has been dropped.
Now we just wait
for what’s going to come.
