Goodbye from Indistinct Chatter by Marla & David Celia

GOODBYE

Goodbye all you cobblestones, it’s been a lovely time
To jump from one to another without touching any lines
Goodbye all you crooked houses, each with their own charm
Just knock ‘em down and turn ‘em around into soldiers on the line

Goodbye to small businesses, you’re cut off at the hand
These machines are faster and deliver on demand
Goodbye fixing anything, no one’s got the time
It’s quicker to replace it for a dollar and a dime

Goodbye to the ears that hear the wisdom of the past
Goodbye to the feeling so de-sensitized to touch
Goodbye to the eyes that see the world beyond the screen
Hello to the smell of trash we really made a scene

Goodbye stars you’re hard to see in all those city lights
Your horoscopic constellations outshined by satellites
Goodbye snow you pretty flakes, you slowly leave this land
Can count the times gone sledding this past decade in one hand

Goodbye to the ears that hear the wisdom of the past
Goodbye to the taste of soul the blues have all dried up
Goodbye to the eyes that see the world beyond a screen
It’s everything we hope for and it’s really quite a dream
