Florida

Let's go to Florida
Palm trees and shit man
Palm trees here we go

It was like a town in Florida in the fifties you know
I don't know there's a lot of white buildings
They were really white I could see them
They were about seven or eight stories tall
All the people were walking around
And it just looks so good you know
They all had uh blue dresses and nice pants on
You know they're all of them are drinking pop
From you know with straws in the bottles
Things were lookin' you know sun was shining so bright
The downtown looked incredible I couldn't believe it
There was gliders flyin' around in the sky
These guys flying around in gliders you know
And they'd swoop between the buildings
And they they'd go down the alley ways you know
And they make a sharp left and a sharp right
And uh it's like they I couldn't believe
That it was really happening you know

So I said you know I don't believe this this isn't real
And just as I said that this guy in the glider
Was coming right through the center of town
And he ran into the building in the middle of town
Fifteen story high building right in the center of town
He started tumbling through the air you know
And his glider crashed in the alley and uh
I noticed this couple on the uh on the parking lot
And uh they they were just walking together in conversation you know
Like nothing else was happening and uh looking up
They noticed a tumbling man coming through the air
And uh he he came right down and landed right on them
And made and awful sound and uh
I ran over there I could see that they were really gone you know
But on the ground beside them was this little baby dressed in
It just had a red blanket wrapped around it
So I picked it up and took it to my car over on the corner which wasn't too far away
And I put it in the back seat
I don't know whether it was a boy or a girl
I didn't look I just put it down
It was sleeping and I looked and a crowd had gathered
On the parking lot this beautiful lady was coming
Down the street and I looked at her
And she looked right at me and she said
That's my baby in the back of your car there
I said oh no that baby belongs to that to that dead couple on the parking lot
And she said no no you're wrong you're wrong
What happened to them
