As The Trailer Park Turns (Her Side)(response remix to Leslie Dale Hall As The Trailer Park Burns)
[Verse 1] Single-wide humming by the rail line Eyeliner sharp in the bathroom stall Lip gloss shine while I re-do my hairline Little gold flask passed hand to hand Last call Kids chalk planets on a cracked slab driveway Streetlights flicker on the next dirt turn Somebody’s boyfriend knocking on my doorway Curtains half-closed And I feel it burn [Chorus] As the trailer park turns High-heel halos round the porch lights As the trailer park turns Same wild story On a loop every night As the trailer park turns Ash on my cherry-lime water As the trailer park turns We dance and laugh And pour it stronger [Verse 2] Skinny girl singing hooks at the bus stop Phone flashlight on a busted boombox Dreams about stages in a thrift-store crop top Mama on a barstool Calling detox Old man Wilson in his lawn chair swaying Blesses my voice in the purple sky Says the world’s ending But I’m still playing Won’t leave a place That watched me try [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Laundry line swings like a cheap halo Fan hums low over midnight schemes Everybody "didn’t hear" Everybody "didn’t know" Till my chorus shakes loose in their dreams [crescendo] Neon flashing like a busted rainbow Bassline thumping over oil-slick puddles We’re all cracked mirrors in a one-room shadow Sharing smoke Sharing songs Sharing trouble [Chorus]
