White Girl

White Girl, market at Van Ness
Heels to drag, discombobulated
Air all soft around, hear the man singing
Inclines and wires, Telegraph Avenue
Look away and she’s eastbound, out of sight
Dropped here by the hand of the Astronaut
Builder of the pyramids, the man from outer space
Innocent farmgirl raised by the aliens
Out in Northridge, out in the larger world
Look away and she’s eastbound, out of sight
Up out of sight, white girl… white girl…
