about

Keyboards recorded on 4/10/2020 and vocals recorded on 5/18/2020 at Golden Catty Corner, St. Petersburg, Florida.

lyrics

On sunshine state’s west side, this metro’s named for waterway.
Two decades, back to share roads, million more came while away.

St. Pete feels like an island, but beyond means behind wheel.
Crawling along the Frankland, wonder what am I doing here?

Tampa Bay, you’re sprawling!
It’s got everybody talking!

I don’t blame the water; keeps those strip malls spreading more.
Wish could fly like pelican, with Slime Queen land on floor.

This should not be a problem: Friends and fun on every side.
It’s lack of public transit, got us stressed, stuck, and crying.

Tampa Bay drivers appalling!
Bus systems here are heartless!

While skyline cancer’s spreading one percenter fantasies.
How about we take their money: Build rail system for our needs!
Fill the bay with ferries that cruise frequent-completely free!

Hey 19! You are the jammed way: Gulfport’s Golden Dinosaur,
Safety Harbor’s Flower Ellie, New Port Richey's cuties far.

Can take meow from Bradenton, keep Village of the Arts in my heart.
Pals south down Tamiami…Will high winds keep us apart?

Missing good things when I say “no.”
Safe from traffic, all alone!

Wish we’d all pick one city and move to proximity.
In this mess that lacks a center, may best solve it aurally.
Airwaves are like a room to hear what’s shared till next we meet.

Mermaids drive from Homosassa to springs of Weeki Wachee?
Can’t forget where had first night upon return: “Hello, Lakeland!”
