they were 7/11 day dreams
bought like the gangee's brass
just before 2 am
next door to the yap dancer's
topless bar and sundown lawn

and we hated the 57 chevy sound
when the blind woman would read
cap mark divots in the chrome
and foretell that our future was grim
even for a mother behind the scenes

but you brought us courage then
in your bosom of forgetfulness
with that place for big hands
to play in it don't matter
if hungover til tomorrow's howl

you were the chair, rocking electric
with strap downs for our wrists
and your little whip at the end
just to make sure it hurt all the way
not just on the edges like soda

hell bless you now, betty bull moon
