After dancing with Becky in the caviar and cracker set,
we took a looooong walk down to the Old Canucku House.
smoked ganja and drank tequila all night long
looked out at the stars...
gave up on the idea of eternal life
gave up on the idea of fear

There we were, seventy feet up on the flat rocks
looking out at the Divi Divi

12 years ago
3 gorillas in soccer attire, pulled up in Hovercrafts and
asked for directions to le disco

Pointing north found us thinkin about dancing
making plans to re-claim all the people at the people counter...

Lost at the Equator of my Soul,
staring into 4 billion pins in a bowl,
wondering.....          which one is Becky?

We overthrew the government, sharing one gingerale amongst 30 of us
in an American Express Commercial

Latino pretty boys swept Jewish American Princesses off their feet
into jacuzzi's filled with blue jell-o
refusing to be caught dirty dancing the merengue
we ignored playing connect the dots with feet lacking wooden shoes

Watching Barney and Fred speak to Wilma and Betty in Spanish on Venezuela Cable T.V.
sitting alone, eating cold pizza,and drinking Amstel Beer

Lost at the Equator of my soul,
staring into 4 billion pins in a bowl
Knowing one of them is Becky...
I remember how we talked for day's
always looked each other straight in the eye
sharing scary thoughts Like
the End

could be the end,             and now it was.
after dancing with Becky, the whole universe seemed smaller,
the sky looked like a planetarium,
only better........

Chorus out
Lost at the equator of my soul,
staring into 4 billion pins in a bowl......
