Hale-Bopp Bop

Edie Meade

Hale-Bopp Bop

[Capo on 2, A, G, Em, D, give’m hell Gunny]

disposable camera day, long tail        
long-haul doppler fading away

me on drugs you on foot
meet me at the neon of the Pizza Hut

/

El Camino coming in hot, keep low
to the ground, coyote trot

me in front you in back
meet me at the dumpster of the Radio Shack

/

irrational exuberance, go on
twist your mood ring give it a chance

me on mix tape you in memory
meet me at the end of the century

/

[Chorus]
send an Astronomical Telegram
check on Frank Black, tell a friend

we found Heaven’s Gate closing in                
the San Diego sky
