tooby me
i turn to walk away
throwing salt over my shoulder
is inappropriate today
but i do it anyway
i keep in in a pouch
in my pocket
'neath my garlic necklace
i can't believe you say i'm reckless
that's your defect
it's cheap protection
when it comes down
to "what the hell is going on?"
i have to face what i can't believe
wish i could force faith
and live in a sensible place
instead of limbo
i shouldn't complain
i've got the zip code memorized already anyway
and they've got my address
so they can send me anything
they think that i should see
and i'm still joyful enough to be ignorant
i'm still ignorant enough to be me
