lyrics

A shot rings out
From the starting gun
And you're off like an arrow
Run, rabbit, run
And you don't touch the ground
Fly straight as an bullet,
Truer than anyone

Discipline, proportion
Luminous distinctions
You're as lean and holy
As a shining St. Sebastian
While I'm coming apart at the seams
Sketched lines,
A map you drew from memory
And I'm scratching my name out of books
Drinking down the ocean,
Cutting my legs in the dark


Over the hurdles,
Down the curving track
Greyhound, thoroughbred,
You're never coming back
Peel off this town
Like a shedding snake
Rocket to the heavens, white rat shot into outer space

Over the hurdles,
Down the curving track
Greyhound, thoroughbred,
You're never coming back
Peel off this town like a shedding snake
Rocket to the heavens, white rat shot into outer space

You'll get away from here
Shoot the moon
For both of us, my dear

Kick, kick it off now
Let it drown
I'll be waiting for you forever
A rabbit-proof fence in this dirty old town
