Long Range Hustle – Carolina Lyrics
Artist: Long Range Hustle
Song: Carolina
There’s a cardinal
Red wings trimmed with cardamom fringes
Making a nest of old photography
In the attic that you willed to me
With herculean force
I attack a stack of texts
There’s “Intro to the Civil War”
And “State Birds” circa ’64
How long have you gone
Collecting dusty old idiosyncrasies
In notebooks full of odd locutions
8th note jokes and Wrong Solutionism
(syndicated)?
They’re filling up my head
I’m cramming for each exam you wrote
Until all my taxonomies are reversed
Cardinalis
Cardinalidae
Now, delicately from the air
The bird alights upon a set
Of poetry by Service
Missing only Sam McGee and there
Amidst a copse of calendars
A scribbled note reads unreserved
“I’ll not surrender quietly
And I will not go alone”
From the guide that I found
I pull the title around
And drag a finger down the continental
Forty-eight to find a state or town
Carolina
Carolina
Carolina
Carolina
