lirik lagu cricket blue - alicia from the store
does the body worry if you keep it inside?
does it feel at home?
does a body worry, with the shade up to the cars outside
if you keep it in?
alicia tells me men are dogs while we mop the floor
i see her get into their cars when her register is closed.
her mouth is brown with lipstick; her hair is soft and smells like smoke
we put the produce out while it’s hard and green
alicia bags the old fruit up, juice running in her sleeve.
i ask her where it goes. i like the way the ripe fruit smells
it seems impossible the green fruit’s all that sells
in the parking lot, i find her
talking to a little stray.
cigarette break by the dumpster
fruit flies landing on her face
fruit flies landing on her —
alicia tells me men are dogs, the way they talk to her
sometimes their eyes have felt like hands slipping fingers in my collar
she asks me where i go and then how much my parents pay
it seems impossible how much gets thrown away!
will i know her, this alicia
when the summer’s at an end?
won’t i find a better place
and never see this girl again?
anyway, this brave alicia
walks me past the hound dogs baying
asks me what i think becomes of all the fruit we throw away —
asks me:
does a body worry if you keep it inside?
does it feel home? can a body survive?
will you take it to the cellar, the bones and the tether
lay the bones of the dog and the body together?
does the body worry if you keep it in?
