Lake Geneva

	作词 : Sparks, Sparks
	You are crouched before the fire
	In a state park by the highway
	And through the heavy pine trees
	Ten-ton trucks go groaning by

	Like the screams of your Aunt Barbara
	Who went crazy in the '70's
	Wrote poems to Jimmy Carter
	But forgot to feed her kids

	But, it's the first time you're together
	Since he got out of the hospital
	Raccoons in the darkness
	Drag off your hot dog buns

	But, you're happy just to lie there
	In your plastic tent from Wal-Mart
	Like sticks and fallen dead leaves
	To feed the fire of the world

	Because which is more important
	To comfort an old woman
	Or see visions of the heavens
	In the stumps of fallen trees?

	Albert Einstein trembled
	When he saw that time was water
	Seeping through the rafters
	To put out this burning world

	Next morning you're at Waffle House
	Toast and eggs and hash browns
	Truckers chain-smoke Camels
	Over plastic cups of juice

	And you remember how he cried
	When they strapped him to the stretcher
	Convinced his arms were burning
	With electricity from heaven

	You remember how he told you
	That black holes were like Jesus
	And the crucifix was a battery
	that filled the air with fire
