about

This song was born from Pat's acoustic bit.  I eventually 
came up with the words and melody - again inspired by the 
throw-away title - and ta-da.  The whole motorcade theme 
was from one of my earliest compositions and briefly saw 
life in an old song that I did with This Jungle called 
Drowning.  The jungly ending came from a Ricky Ricardo 
song and an old Boxes of Love song that I can't recall.  
As usual the bridge was developed while recording.

words

shine shine venitian blinds
didn't you dream last night?
light seeks blinking eyes
didn't you sleep last night?

yeah i suppose
all things must pass
slowly slip away
in a motorcade

ring ring tightened line
she come like a thief in the night
rope slack muscle hum
and then she steal away

yeah i suppose
all things must pass
slowly slip away
in a motorcade
