About Great Men

Talking to me about great men

Talking to me late in the canteen

Who paid you to do that?

There are many equations set

Like how many plane rides will it take me to get

Within spitting distance of you?

But talk to me about the rhododendrons on the trail

Even though I didn't know they weren't oleander

That poisonous flower

What is it men think it can get them?

What is it I think I wanna give them?

A little conversation

Is it love that makes a great man?

Oh, I don't wanna talk anymore

Were we going to dance and leave chance to chance?

Is that your hand on my hand?
