Albino Alabama

Excuses hold the power

You were a child watching man walk on the moon

A photo of your dad shaking hands with George Bush

Rebelled smoking weed in your room

Bleach 80's coiffure, hair like a rocker

Studded leather over business suits

You were watching the future

On a grainy tv on the floor

Of your parents living room

Do you see the wind blow through the trees

Do you feel my heartbeat flowing through the leaves

In

Alabama ah ah ah

White church Sundays, top down through the Wendys

Just a child and I already knew

Brownie ice cream sundaes and sandy baseboard blondies

I was free and I had something to prove

You told me never be a cheater and

Always love your neighbors

But loving me is something you couldn’t do

Now I’m sitting with my girl watching grainy tv on the floor of our living room

Do you see the wind blow through the trees

Do you feel my heartbeat flowing through the leaves

In Alabama ah ah ah
