Your rubber legs By the river's edge You say your cigarette needs a light This second is the rest of my life Tell all my pillows, softly "I'm just as worn as you" You've been away for ages, stay awhile Or cut me down with a clinical smile You look just like me With your collar, red And your knees stained green all night In your uniform, torn down the side Meet by the bank where the bridge is gone We stayed up till the break of dawn Until you wonder, hushed in a whisper "Just how long is forever?" Tune out the sound completely Cover your eyes Figures dressed in your bed discreetly Dream of you and I You look just like me With your collar, red And your knees stained green all night In your uniform, torn down the side In the pictures that I tore Of your collar, red like wine Do your rubber legs still shake Through the night in my uniform
