I Didn't Give A Damn

from Ismene by Cincinnati Time Store

lyrics

the model's nipple bold against the greying winter sky
and i am shaking from the bitter cold here in the helicopter
jane is steadying what's left of tom's arriflex against her eye:
this one goes out to all the editors and photoshoppers
parties she hosted for the agency before it dropped her

once our pictures hung behind glass in the heart of OTR
forcing the hyde park browsers into conflict with their bougeois taste
and hastening, we thought, the start of revolution via art
(but 3cdc had their own ideas about the place)

then god gave me the grace to throw those bitter dreams away

and i'm sorry but i hope you understand
your heart was hot for chilling deeds
i went along unwillingly
and i'm sorry if TITLE OF SONG

we clung tight to each others' arms at the mayor's party through a haze of drugs
our mini-cameras beaming footage that the van outside recieved
and then jane's string of pearls unwound onto the persian rug
& tugging on my sleeve, she suggested that it might be time to leave

& i was never good at sticking to the plan
in the midst of nervous fits i found i could not keep my wits about me
and i'm sorry if TITLE OF SONG

we're just spoiled little kids who never had to learn how to live
stupid smirking gits with camels hanging down from our lips
hearts and budgets shrunk, but our plans kept along, growing big,
and one day i found TITLE OF SONG

the signal's given through the walkie talkie and away we go
the news crews aren't here yet but soon night will fall so our window's getting small
so jane trains the camera on the nudes down in the fields
as they form into the shape of a giant grinning skull

so i'm sorry but i hope you understand
your heart was hot for chilling deeds
mine was set on baser needs
so i'm sorry if TITLE OF SONG
i swore that i would follow you to the bitter end -
as quitters win, that i would be your final friend
