lyrics

There was that summer you had the get-rich-quick scheme:
Buy up some bikes,
And fix them up on Sixth Street.

You went down to the auction.
The place was pulsing with policemen.
And with my seed contribution,
You went all in. You went all in.
You bought all thirty-five broken bikes.

Suffice it to say, that summer slipped away.
The autumn, the winter, both did the same.
The morning he shot her,
There were bicycle frames strewn along the staircase,
And chained along the fence was the one you’d fixed
With no brakes.

When we recovered,
You went out riding
Down Euclid
Towards Sixth Street
And another day.
