Amelia, Amelia Earhart, after her plane was torn apart
and bursting through the trees She remembered picking
lemons with William Randolph Hearst and how a spinning
plane propeller turned liquid in the sun.
And as the cockpit burned,
her hair filled with sparks,
but when the glass exploded in, everything went dark.
She remembered sipping consommé with William Howard
Taft and a boy with perfect skin who smelled like mustard
gas. And as the cockpit burned,
she couldn't help but smile,
recalling a dancing bear she'd seen as a child.
This song is from the album "Live At Schuba's Tavern".
