Point Judith Lyrics - Jandek

Crestfallen and broken breast 

I feel a full shadow 

I see a spur digging 

Snails on the rocks and it's low tide and 

There's diamonds in the ocean 

But if there's a moth winging out over the waves 

In the sunlight there's 

Two spiders meet on a rock but 

They're the same anyhow so... 

It's all so still here I... 

Little waves spill over little rocks 

You can peel off mica from the rocks 

As it shines like smooth silver 

But you know there's more than this 

'Cause you can see the boats sailing 

And the gulls fly by fishing 

And there's a lighthouse in the distance, but... 

It's all so quiet that.. 

Why disturb the silence so 

Go away in the moonlight and 

Bring back a starfish 

Settle back easy 

Make up your mind to stay 

I've earned a fortune and 

There's not much more to say 

I'm livin' easy 

As smooth as silk these days 

I see that you're fearful 

Haven't changed your ways 

Settle back easy and 

Make up your mind to stay 

[bangs microphone] 

The country's cleaner and 

I've earned a fortune and 

You don't have to pay 

Just settle back easy and 

Make up your mind to stay
