"Bambi" lyrics

"Bambi"

And the grass was growing high
Around the wreckage
So high I could not see
That's where the Kmart used to be
Drove around with my brother there
He told me when to put the clutch down
And then that time in the frozen air
We ran a pick and I threw a touchdown

And the tide was coming up to the umbrellas
So high up to my knees
That's where the castle used to be
Played around in the tide pools
With my cousins where
We looked up and there was no one there
Sometimes it seems that the whole world cries
At that scene in Bambi where his mother dies

In the video I run down the street
With my whole life flashing before me
In a sudden gale, all along the line
My engine fails on the on ramp to 89
And I remember calling

In the video I run down the street
With my whole life flashing before me
When it all collapses man
Constellations in our hands
No more reservations then
The hunters all stop and stand
No more hesitation then
Falling back and holding our breath
While all of the planets spin

And the grass was growing
High around the wreckage
So I high I could not see
That's where the Palace used to be
Took the Honda with my girlfriend
To the movies there
Through all the losses of the when and where
Sometimes it seems that the whole world cries
At that scene in Bambi where his mother dies

And the tide was coming up to the fourth story
So high, above the trees
That's where the island used to be
Took the rowboat with my brother
'Round the downtown there
Through all the arches
Of the old World's Fair
Sometimes it seems
That our mother cries
At that scene in Matthew
Where the gardener dies
