STARLINGS OF THE SLIPSTREAM
 
I heard what you said 
the leaders are dead 
They're robbing the skies 
I can hear their followers cry: 
 
ooh -- starlings in the slipstream 
ooh -- starlings in the slipstream 
ooh -- starlings in the slipstream 
ooh -- starlings in the slipstream 
 
The language of influence is cluttered with hard hard C's 
And I put a spy-cam in a sorority 
 
ooh -- darlings on the split-screen 
ooh -- darlings on the split-screen 
ooh -- darlings on the split-screen 
ooh -- darlings on the split-screen 
ooh 
 
There's no women in Alaska 
There's no Creoles in Vermont 
There's no coast of Nebraska 
My mother, I forgot 
Slavic princess with a rose in her teeth 
Do you suppose she would bite you if she could? 
Insane cobra split the wood 
Trader of the lowland breed 
Call a jittney, drive away 
In the slipstream we will stay 
Stay away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away
