Cement Trucks

I roar down your street

Hiding my destination

Mixing your path liquid

Roaring by the other ones

As I wink my eye their way

They run in a pile of disapproval

I cry around the corner

I'm a cement truck, driving alone

The others on their path

Everything is them, the other trucks

Infesting a web of freeway

Drunken of gasoline, laughing away

Arms locked like clowns at circus hour

I yearn for a chance with them

A friend like me, so mild, so keen

I meet her in you, roaring my way

Mixing my path liquid

I felt you in my dreams, sitting next to me

Bleating to my ear, weeping yourself away

All I feel is you around me

We ride together thru a web of crowds

A web of freeway stren before us

All is there, but you and me

I always had a fear of cement trucks as a boy
