Show Teeth - A Place I Know lyrics

by David R. I know where my roots curve on the right side of the Colorado River West of the Grand Canyon and into the Golden State. I know where my roots scream of words no one can understand. The speaker thinks they can hear; but everyone knows they can't. I know where my roots can be exciting with all the places and people to see the rides and roller-coasters are exciting, with mice, and flags, and various berries. I know where my roots wash away leaving smooth sand and silica along with a hermits old home and white foam. I know where my roots are; they're where I left them. They don't move; they never leave my home. I know what my roots do. They hold me in place, and lead me home; and a house is not a home.
