All of the girls out with their hips asway

But I'm the lonliest man.

They're selling insence and sunglasses on Orchard Street

Boatloads of bootleg Sean Jean.

I dreamed you up in this vast dark bed

Believe I loved you for each hair upon the back of your neck

And I want to kiss you but I can't

Down on the river by the sugar plant

Down on the river by the sugar plant.

Earings weighing down the lobe

A nose who loves to slope

And a mouth turned down.

Shoulders pale and beautiful

And angle of the throat

And a sweet sad stare.

All of the waves that crash upon the shore

Fruitlessly shushing the world.

I'll pledge allegiance to my displacement

My flag of doubt is unfurrled.

I'll dream you up on a vast dark coast

Believe I see you walking towards me

Arms outstretched like a ghost

And I want to kiss you but I can't

Down on the river by the sugar plant...

Down on the river by the sugar plant... [5x]
