Hindsight

from the pink album (LP) by YB

lyrics

three women on a train to detroit
common commute or a fatal mistake
hindsight is a windowed caboose
when something is wrong with the brake

make the bad kid go to his room
poked his eye in a fight after school
nothing on but the 6 o clock news
dull is the eye going blind
sharp is the one left behind

hindsight, hindsight, blind side by a brighter light
hindsight, hindsight, blind side by a brighter light
hindsight is a brighter light

family trip to the florida lagoon
summer solace or a fatal mistake
hindsight is a leaky pontoon
& now they are dragging the lake

broken man on the subway at dawn
glass eye & an old trench coat
i saw it once on the evening news
cold is the lump in his throat
sewing the threads of the noose
drilling a hole in the boat
cutting the brake cables loose

let's side with the old man
let's side with the old man

loose lips tend to flapsifan, I'll side with the old man
outside in the garbage can, I'll side with the old man

hindsight, hindsight, blind side by a brighter light
hindsight, hindsight, blind side by a brighter light
hindsight is a brighter light
hindsight is the brightest light
