TRAVON TILL'S SIDE YARD ( 4 Verses ) Don't want nobody Get along fine with self Keep in touch with Family Dust 'ol friends off the shelf Lovin' life So easy to do Rollin' 'round in naked beds Well, mister, good for you Built a mighty fine lunch Last night's table scraps Wrestled with the brown mustard lid Tossed morsels snatched by Foster the cat Don't dig in a garden Leave it up to the pros Leave a dark soil, soulful place in back Feel God's work 'neath breathin' bare toes ( Bridge ) Fresh air out in the neighborhood Peace in the valley, you just might find Smiling hearts of those around you Not another plucked piece broken on line ( Chorus ) Waving to "Snow Plow" Pauletta Always manages to get trough Frank and Jay, cut their own way Dreads ta military crew The twins pick up their jumpin' rope speed FASTER FASTER, Blistered rubber souls! Lend your longing ear, my friend Hear pavement patter RINGING off The fire escape pole! Ditched the wheels that were burning Spooked holes against the Credit card Strolled towards Aldi and could not miss a PERFECT SPIRAL slung in Trayvon Till's side yard ( 4 Verses ) Gotta few hobbies Keep thinkin' and feeling gears strong Mostly write in the deep middle of nights Songs of beauty or beauty's gone wrong Woke hard from that same loud spiraling dream People dropping kittens from Licking Bridge Steel grey squeal, with aching bolts poppin' loose Mama's home no ounce of milk, left to give The Tills hosted pot luck in their side yard "Steamy cheese to top that lasagna, please?" Mother and Father Till dance in the dark Cuttin' the zoysia with FIRE flyin' feet Trayvon Till painted a walrus Dove perched on her shoulder, at St. Louis Zoo Title to Trayvon's masterpiece reads: "Peace on earth, ya'll!" from Bernice and THE LOU! ( Repeat Bridge ) ( Repeat Chorus )
