lyrics

sundown in the Paris of the Prairies
wheat kings and all treasures are buried
and all you hear are the rusty breezes
whispering around weathervane Jesus

zippo lighter received the killer's face
maybe some standing ina killers place
twenty years for nothing well that is nothing new
besides no one is interested in something you didn't do

wheat kings and pretty things
wait and see what tomorrow brings

there is a dreamy dreams
where the highschool is dead and stark
it is museum and we are all locked up in it after dark
the walls are lined with yellow grey and sinister
hung with pictures of our parents' prime ministers

wheat kings and pretty things
wait and see what tomorrow brings

late-breaking story on the CBC
a nations whispers that we always knew that he'd go free
and you cant be fond of living in the past
because there is no way you are gonna last

what kings and pretty things
wait and see what the morning brings
