Cardboard Cowboy

Lyrics: Phil Lesh
Music: Phil Lesh

When the cardboard cowboy dreams and his cornucopia
Opens up the sky and blows my mind to the corners of
Far in bar rent shine running beneath high trembling dove
Leaving me transfixed and raving in the wake of the hammer blow

On my way out of town I stumbled on the shards of a hungry scream
And further up into the backdoor circle, where the power and crystal sea
Could this go rise by all allow brater on the strength of an anguished sigh
And a paranoid re-entry blanket flies sleeping on a sling shot ride

As my patchwork world unravels, I ramble yes too high
From the looping antrobus with his magic meant so high
Shining out a masquerade from dawn to alpha plus
Watching mashed potatoes dribble in the heat of reality's earth

For the intro doom from running to him
It wasn't ever so
Turns the wall into the sky above me, there is no place to run
