Heavyweight Champion of the World
When the world's weight gets heavy
drive your Chevy
into a lake.
Inflate a bevy
of rafts and be ready
for the shake-
down. Towns deflate
in the ruddy
summer wastes,
and lake-weeds shedding
clog the levy;
the waters wait
and wilting shards
of Chevy paint
flake off into the stream.
drive your Chevy
into a lake.
Inflate a bevy
of rafts and be ready
for the shake-
down. Towns deflate
in the ruddy
summer wastes,
and lake-weeds shedding
clog the levy;
the waters wait
and wilting shards
of Chevy paint
flake off into the stream.
