The Loan Officer (Socialism or Barbarism)

Sunset disintegrates
My mind's been shadowy of late
Deluxe Inn, hey
South Dixie Highway, weekly rates
Talk radio
In my early 90s Impala
Shouting out, hey
We got a late-night caller
Loud and clear, you know the revolution's here

Storage unit, down by the docks
I'll get my guns out after the equinox
Parking lot in back of the bank
Two blocks behind, siphon his gas tank
Seas boil, streets riot
People gonna burn it if they can't buy it
Golf hat with blood on the brim
Dump the body where my ocean view would have been

I'd prefer
To discuss my payments after hours
Rooftop pools glow
Follow his Beemer from the towers
Name and photo
Make it look like a robbery
Can't blame my bills, no
I would kill this guy for free
After he took her away from me

Storage unit, down by the docks
I'll get my guns out after the equinox
Parking lot in back of the bank
Two blocks behind, siphon his gas tank
Seas boil, streets riot
People gonna burn it if they can't buy it
Golf hat with blood on the brim
Dump the body where my ocean view would have been

I know
This could never bring her back
That beachfront condo
Atlantic breezes from the black
When he washes up to shore I sorta hope they bring me in
I'll say I've never seen him before and I hope I never do again
And they'll look for a motive or a witness or a curse
We're all on our way to hell, he just got there first
