There's not much more that can be said about this track that isn't already stated in its title and delivery...
I can tell you that when I wrote this I was very sick and in a fever delirium...
lyrics
it glistens in the sun
a shining and shimmering burgundy hunk of metal
its not even really that attractive of a car
but i must say its very well kept
an attraction to cars-perhaps its because i don't know how to drive
but I'm not really seeing the car-
I'm thinking about Detroit
I run myself a shower and undress
the water cascades down my back
I am longing for some sort of caress
and I am lathering myself with scented soap hoping that it might take away
the feeling of a body wrought with the weight
of such a wait
such a weight
for after so long a foreign place was placed a blossom
my mind goes back to the car
once again I'm thinking about Detroit (always Detroit)
I can feel its haunt and cacophony tearing up my spine
and then down I lay
naked as day
(I cant believe I'm saying this)
with the water pouring down like rain-
two times, two times i came
said two times, two times i came...
