about

One man's fantasy, reality and lunchtime menu. Cameos by a Shasta trailer and a corned beef sandwich.

lyrics

WINTER PEAR

BEECH TREES, OAKS AND MAPLES
A ONE HUNDRED YEAR LEASE
ON GOLDENROD, MILKWEED AND THISTLE
AND A VINTAGE SHASTA TRAILER

SCABBY APPLE TREES,
A GNARLED OLD WINTER-PEAR
HIVED OFF HONEYBEES, BLACK-CAPS AND JUNE-BERRIES

LOUNGING IN MY CEDAR CHAIR
ON A CROOKED PORCH
IT’S LUNCHTIME AND I’M CHEWING A SANDWICH
I MADE MYSELF

WITH BREAD I BAKED MYSELF, CORNED-BEEF I CORNED MYSELF
LETTUCE I GREW MYSELF AND A BOTTLE OF BEER I BREWED MYSELF

I’M SORRY I CAN’T LIVE WITH YOU,
SORRIER THAT I CAN LIVE WITHOUT YOU
SIMPLICITY WON’T YOU VISIT ME

AZALEAS, DOGWOOD AND RHODIES
A FIXED RATE 30 YEAR MORTGAGE
ON FESQUE SOD, QUACK-GRASS AND DANDELIONS
AND A BRAND NEW HEAT EXCHANGER

COFFEE’S BURNT, COMPUTER’S ON THE FRITZ
BOYS WANT THE SOUND CARD FIXED
TRIED TO CLEAN THE GARAGE AND MADE IT WORSE
BASEMENT’S HELL ON EARTH, PLUMBING’S A CURSE

SLOUCHING IN A FOLDING CHAIR
ON A CEMENT PORCH
IT'S LUNCH TIME I'M EATING A SANDWICH
YOU BOUGHT YOURSELF

WRAPPED IN PLASTIC YOU UNWRAPPED YOURSELF
WITH LETTUCE THAT'S STILL CRUNCHY SOMEHOW
AND ROAST-BEEF YOU HOPE WON'T GIVE ME MAD-COW
AND A CAN OF BEER YOU CRACKED FOR ME

I’M SORRY YOU CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT ME
SORRIER THAT YOU CAN LIVE WITH ME
SIMPLICITY WHY’D YOU LEAVE ME

Daniel Heila & Daniel Boone's Fault Eugene, Oregon

Podunk expat living in Oregon trying to remember to put the chickens in and the cats out at night. Will the woodshed ever get built? I wonder. Somewhere between family and fortune is a bit of quiet space where I get a song written now and then.
