Questions
(Words and Music by Blake Rainey and Young Antiques)
As I woke up at dawn
I heard the police on my lawn
Never have they stayed so long until today
Tell me, Has your address ever changed?
Is your birthdate still the same?
Do you answer to your Christian name?
Tell me boy?
And may I ask you -
Do you feel the way I do
About this and that and more?
Questions of your distant past
Questions of where were you last
Questions of these photographs in your file
Nervously I unpacked my things
Showed my tattoo and my slip of pink
Stamped approved in government ink,
Truly yours
And may I ask you -
Do you feel the way I do
About this and that and more?
Questions of your distant past
Questions of where were you last
Questions of these photographs in your file
And as I walked away
I heard one laugh and heard one say,
This must be your lucky day.
As they drove away
