8:30 Lyrics

It’s 8:30
Time to head on home
It’s 8:30
But home feels so alone

8:30
would you like to take a walk
It’s 8:30
Been awhile since we talked

And if you’re not in the mood
We can order some food
And eat it in the park
No rush
No hurry
At
8:30

so many people on the street
8:30
cause there’s nowhere else to meet

and we don’t say a word
these times surreal and absurd
so we gather around and wait
we wait and worry

Bridge:
sitting in the grass
Under the moonshine
Beneath the city stars
Feel the breeze from the trees
They’re taking care of me
Taking care of me…….

At 8:30
Sax

At 8:30
Sax

I’m scared and I’m lost
The life we’ve known has been tossed
And we’re not sure what’s next
Don’t think

Spoken Word:

The herd can be observed
Grazing in the grass
Drinking wine, eating chips and salsa
Humus, hand sanitizers
Mmmmm

Dogs are unleashed, having a grand ol’ time
While their masked people stand strategically placed on the run

A mutt named Cody visits me on my blanket
It’s the only physical contact with a living thing I’ve had in six months

Ahhh Brooklyn…..

Some people holding hands
Lucky them
While I have mastered the art of pissing outside undetected


At that time all masks are down
Well some are down anyway

We were more real that summer in 2020 than we’ve been in a long (long) time before or since

@8:30 @8:30 @8:30


Seems like everyone is getting a puppy these days…..
