The Blessed Porcupine

i wonder if i wondered something
different than I’m wondering
and oh it breaks my heart might never know

I will never sit in the
delicate delicatessen
but save me a seat and blundering I will go

I wont stop for nothing.
I will never not go.
I’ve always been onto something… what?
might never know

sleeping ugly, might be
but I am at the table
weren’t we all awakened by a kiss?

once you’ve caught the lightning
once you’ve seen the angels
you can’t just pretend they don’t exist

I wont stop for nothing.
I will never not go.
I’ve always been onto something… what?
might never know

A porcupine on a juke joint stage
dove onto a cactus
shook it off and said “oh and that’s not all”

Everything up to this point’s
been practice, practice, practice
because that’s the way you get to Carnegie Hall.

I wont stop for nothing.
I will never not go.
I’ve always been onto something… what?
might never know
