The Silver Jews

Sometimes A Pony Gets Depressed

The Silver Jews


Where does an animal sleep 
when the ground is wet?
Cows in the ballroom
chickens in the farmer's corvette

Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony gets depressed

How does an animal see 
once the sun is set?
Bandits in the capital
limited civilian unrest

Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony gets depressed

What kind of animal 
needs to smoke a cigarette?
Grass in the pasture 
is sharper than a bayonette

Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony gets depressed

Happiness won't leave me alone
says a bird in his nest
Get a load of this fuckin' view
its the best in the west

Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony
Sometimes a pony gets depressed
