Veener Lyrics - Verve Pipe

Thirteen miles on 31 are drying 

All along adopt-a-highway lay the empty cans of masquerade 

Thirteen miles on 31 are drying 

The sky is lavender with ivory clouds that threaten drops of finger-paints 

And puddle jumping children clad 

In yellow raincoats splash the deeper purple of veneer 

Rows and rows of animals 

Their shiver skin is painted different shades 

And from grazing tainted grass 

Their teeth are stained the incandescent green 

Indifferent they watch the rainfall 

Steady blend their spots and run their stripes of veneer 

Lovely ladies strip themselves of furs the winds require 

Lovely ladies bathe themselves in Technicolor mire 

Lovely gentleman 

At 85 on 31 I'm flying 

Flying 

Indifferent they watch the rainfall 

Steady blend their spots and run their stripes 

Indifferent they watch the rainfall 

Steady blend their spots and run their stripes 

Indifferent they watch the rainfall 

Steady blend their spots and run their stripes 

Indifferent they watch the rainfall 

Steady blend their spots and run their stripes 

Indifferent they watch the rainfall 

Steady blend their spots and run their stripes
