lyrics

call the game
when the rain
floods the field and drives the little league inside
folding chairs left behind
fill the van seats up and watch the melting sky
through the glass

do you recall
how it felt
when you swung and hit and everybody shout-
ed for you
filled with pride
round first base and pray the fielder drops the fly
call it foul
try again
before you outgrow
summer vacation

tear the stitch
split the sphere
rip the insides out, a sacrifice to find
but once you know
you can't go
back to playing pickup ball in the sunshine
that's over now
time to ask
if the core was built to last

chimpanzees
in a cage
throw their shit and swing their sticks become enraged
by the crowd
gatherin' round
so they pound their chests and kick the dirt in clouds
so far home

is this america?
i heard her shouting
heard her shouting, now
don't let anybody rain down on you from their cloud
i heard her laughing, heard her crying
kick and scream and shout
don't let anybody tell you they've figured it out
