KS

(albüm: Disjecta Membra - 2012)

I'll casually say "hey" and wave
When I finally meet you
The tickets are expensive
To get there from where I live
I guess I'll take the highway
You had that Expo in the spring
But I had school and home and things

In the beginning, it was easy to deny
A good friend of mine lives in Kansas

Heard of your predicament
Sending my deepest regrets
Twenty dollars are enclosed
To get you through these darker times
I hope that we both stay alive
Enough to figure something out
I'd like to take the train right now

In the beginning, it was easy to deny
A good friend of mine lives in Kansas
In the beginning, it was easy to deny
A good friend of mine lives in Kansas

In the beginning, it was easy to deny
A good friend of mine lives in Kansas
In the beginning, it was easy to deny
A good friend of mine lives in Kansas
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Go to Virginia
Richmond or Williamsburg
Some college kid living on his parents' dime
And wouldn't it be fine?
If he could come and visit you
Oh, it'd make his parents cry
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

In the beginning, it was easy to deny
A good friend of mine lives in Kansas
And in the end, it was easy to deny
Another lonely day down in Kansas

Raised in a graveyard
Strange this displacement
I will take great pains
To get to those great plains
Drop out of college
Move to Topeka
A good friend of mine lives there
