Calliandra Shade

I sit in judgment down the market square I have my favorite table and I have my chair Natives are friendly and the sun flies high All kinds of crazy waiters, they go drifting by Hours last forever in the Calliandra shade Conversation going nowhere and yet, everywhere Kick off those sad shoes and let the bare toes tingle Slip off that shoulder strapless and the thick black hair Come, sit with me and take decaf designer coffee Come, laugh and listen as the ragamuffin children play Lame dog and a black cat, now, they shuffle in the shadows You got cappuccino lip on a short skirt day Electric afternoon and shrill cellphones are mating Lame dog is dreaming, dreaming of a better life Where bed is fluffy pillows, table scraps are fillet mignon Flicked indiscreetly by the lazy waiter's knife Come, sit with me and take decaf designer coffee Come, laugh and listen as the ragamuffin children play Lame dog and a black cat, now, they shuffle in the shadows You got cappuccino lip on a short skirt day Hours last forever in the Calliandra shade Conversation going nowhere and yet, everywhere Kick off those sad shoes and let the bare toes tingle Slip off the shoulder strapless and the thick black hair Come, sit with me and take decaf designer coffee Come, laugh and listen as the ragamuffin children play Lame dog and a black cat, now, they shuffle in the shadows You got cappuccino lip on a short skirt day Come, sit with me and take decaf designer coffee Come, laugh and listen as the ragamuffin children play Lame dog and a black cat, now, they shuffle in the shadows You got cappuccino lip on a short skirt day
